I'm building my first PC, already bought the case, MOBO and CPU (see signature for details).
I'm looking for a CPU cooler that's not the stock Intel one that comes with the i5 2500K, I'm considering the Coolermaster Hyper 212+ but I'm worried it won't fit on my MOBO due to the Corsair Vengeance's frills on the top of the RAM.
Does anyone know if I'll have problems fitting the CM 212+ with the Vengeance RAM or recommend me a better CPU for less than £30?
I will be overclocking the i5 2500K to around 4.7Ghz and space in the case is not a worry.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: since spec didn't show up:
NZXT Phantom Case
ASUS P8P67 Pro Rev 3.0
Corsair Vengeance 8Gb (2x4Gb) 1600MHz DDR3 CL9
Intel i5 2500K
WD 1TB 3.5" SATA-III 6Gb/sec 32mb Cache 7200RPM HDD
Sapphire HD6950 2Gb DiRT3 Edition
LiteOn 12x Blu Ray Drive
Sony Optiarc 24x SATA DVD Drive
