I'm installing a water cooler, but don't know if it'll fit (won't open case until thursday)

So, I have the Eisberg 240L Prestige water cooler, the Cooler Master 431 Plus computer case, and the ASUS AM3 Plus Motherboard. I also have the HyperX FURY DD3 RAM. However, I don't know if the cooler will fit.

Computer Case: http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/elite-431-plus/
Motherboard: http://www.amazon.com/Asus-M5A78L-M-USB3-ASUS-Motherboard/dp/B0054U7HIO
RAM: http://www.hyperxgaming.com/us/memory/fury

Altough I'm pretty sure that the radiator will fit, I'm not sure if the fans will fit, due to the RAM being a bit too tall.

The dimensions of everything should be in the provided links.

If it doesn't fit, is there any other way to install the water cooler? I wouldn't want to have to buy a whole new case/motherboard just for this.

If you need an image of the current setup (without the water cooler), I'll send it tomorrow, as long as someone asks for it.

It doesn't look like it would fit at the top properly. You are right, their is not enough clearance between the motherboard and RAM to fit fans and a radiator. Something you can try doing is putting the fans outside of the case and putting the radiator inside, but it will likely look ugly, especially if you cannot neatly route the fan cables to the motherboard/PSU. It would be a good idea to buy a new case with extra clearance at the top or the front for a large radiator.

I was looking again at the setup, and I THINK it will fit, but very tightly. I'll probably try setting it up outside, even if it looks ugly.
However, I'll wait for other answers. Thanks for the reply.

Alright, I hope whatever you choose to do, you get it working. Good luck!
