Can anyone recommend a fan/heatsink for a DFI LANPARTY DK 790FX-M2RS, here's the catch. That will cool an OC 9850 3.1ghz, and NOT block the memory chip.

I've been having lock ups recently and returned my first 9850 thinking it was the CPU, but it turns out my Memory doesn't have the proper cooling. I have a memory cooler, but the CPU Heatsink/fan is so huge, I can't mount the memory cooler properly.

I do not want to go with water cooling, as the cost is still insane for the good ones, I don't want to shell out $400 for that, or even $300. I want to stay with air cooling, and I'm guessing the only option I have are the heatsink/fans that blows downwards instead of out.

Any thoughts, theories, etc?

Thanks.
