Hi, I wondering if I would be able to use the corsair vengeance with the thermal right silver arrow CPU cooler, the Evga ftw3 mobo, and the intel i7 960 CPU, and if not maybe some suggestions for other ram, ps I'm a huge gamer
 
Solution
I think two sticks would be o.k. but if your going for all four then i would get low profile memory like i mentioned i could be wrong you might be fine but most cpu aftermarket coolers conflict with memory with big heat sinks anyway here you go

What corsair vengeance if it's the blue ram with big heat sinks is it only two sticks of memory or four i am not so sure it won't conflict with the silver arrow CPU cooler although i could be wrong better be safe than sorry though i recommend you get low profile ram here take your pick RAM:G.SKILL Sniper 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR
