1366 cooler that is not so huge?

Last response: in Overclocking

I'm looking for an effective cooler for my i7 950 using ASUS p6x58d-e motherboard. I'm having a difficult time finding a cooler that is not so large and yet effective. Any recommendations? I thought about the Corsair H50, but I wish not to go there if possible. Also, I can't get a low profile cooler because I'm thinking it wouldn't provide clearance for the DDR Dominators.

I'm thinking I have no choice, but thought I'd get some feedback.

Thanks

Ahh.... that may be a problem... can you post a pic of what you have now? (As in pic of your RAM + board + stock fan) I'v used the 92mm & 120mm CCF and I can give you an idea if it'll work or not.

@Shadow I wish I can post pics, but it's still on the shipping truck. LOL. Thanks though. I've probably posted this question prematurely as I'm anticipating putting my rig together.

So maybe the larger coolers would provide better clearance. Hmmm....

Most tower type coolers will fit provided that you install the ram before mounting the cooler. And, perhaps mounting the cooler fan after. It is not bad to mount the fan a bit high on the cooler if necessary.
