I'm looking to build a new rig. Saw the Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3 and it looks like the mobo for me. Looking at reviews, it looks like the cpu is close to the ram slots. Anyone know of any cooling options that are small enough not to make this a problem? I'm going to be using all 4 channels so I don't want to buy a big cooling unit on accident and kill one of my ram slots.
I'm not looking to do anything too crazy on the OC side so don't want to spend more than $50 or so on cooling. I was looking at the Zalman CNPS 9700 NT.
