P55 CPU heatsinks

[Xiphos]

Hello [H]ardForum,

I am trying to find a CPU heatsink that can accommodate memory with tall heatsinks. (ie corsair dominators)

this would be an easy task...... except I am trying to use all 4 dimm slots. the current cooler I have, Noctua U12P will not clear the 1st RAM (one closest to the CPU)

looking at the Prolimatech Armageddon, but I am worried that it might be too tall for my case (Lian Li PC-7F)

also the Thermalright HR-01 Plus... but not sure it's thin enough.

Megahalems is a good cooler, I know, please do not suggest it as it is a fat cooler, and I do not wish to only use 2 sticks of RAM

This is how close the CPU socket is to the RAM slots.

I know there are some P55 users out there help me out!

The True Spirit with the 1156 bracket is what I am using and I couldn't be happier. Low Temps, 4Ghz easily on my I5 750 and it does not encroach on the first Dimm slot unlike a number of other coolers.

Looks like what you might be wanting.
