Will my RAM fit??

[jmathis1108]

Hello all, so I am purchasing ASRock's Extreme4 Z77 board http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157293 and I am wondering with a Cooler Master EVO cooler, will I be able to fit some corsair vengeance sticks in there? Im worried because I keep hearing people with issues of "my RAM wont fit".

Yes it will fit. People keep saying that they wont, I've probably seen threads like this a dozen times now.

Not to you but to people who say they won't, if you're unsure, thats fine to say you aren't positive. But, I will say absolutely Corsair Vengeance standard profile does not hinder the installation of a 212 evo.

Now when you say standard profile, are you considering these standard profile? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233144

Yes, they're the same ones I have in my Phenom II rig. My CoolerMaster HyperN520 doesn't hinder them either.

One last question though while I am thinking about it, what would posses someone to buy the GSkill Ripjaw X series over standard Ripjaw? Or the Sniper Series? Whats the difference?
