So i have my newly built pc for a week and i'm already annoyed by the FX 8350 stock cooler.I knew stock coolers are bad and that you should get aftermarket coolers but i didn't think it would be so loud even when idle.So after reading around a bit,people seem to recommend The 212 Evo.But i'm concerned that it won't fit.
I have the zalman z11 plus case(i know it fits in the case)
asus m5a78l-m/usb3 motherboard
and one corsair vengeance 8gb ram stick.
i'm worried that the fan won't fit because of the ram.
 
Solution
if it's just the fan that is over the RAM slots, you could always clip the fan a little higher.

heatsink dimensions: 120 x 80 x 159 mm

grab a tape measure and check it out to make sure.

since you have only one stick of ram you can use different slot and that will leave some space for the cooler

edit: my bad for not knowing your mobo is micro mobo. it will fit but it will be really tight
