This one then? http://www.coolermaster.com/product.php?product_id=6738 ?
Or how about something like this? http://www.zalman.com/ENG/product/Product_Read.asp?idx=450
Or this? http://www.zalman.com/ENG/product/Product_Read.asp?idx=448

Or why don't you just move the fan to the other side and use it in a pull action instead of a push action? It won't cool quite as well, but it'll most definitely be out out the way for the RAM slots.

The first one does not fit, it's too big. I'll check the Zalman ones, thanks.

Regarding pull action, yes, i keep this as my last option.

If you're not looking to oc and want quiet than I would suggest an h60 or lower and then add new fans that are quieter. Even with slow moving quiet fans they will cool sufficiently if not over clocked and will be as quiet as you want them.

Ok, thanks. But what about the pump? Is it noisy as reported by many reviews?

I don't have personal experience with CPU liquid cooling, but thought this link would be relevant--

He doesn't want advice, he wants to argue real user experiences versus paid reviewers... If he had tried any of the good options presented here this thread would be dead and gone.

You are wrong! I'm just asking for advice on a cooler with a replaceable fan (for silent operation) that fits my system and it is not easy to find it.
I'm not saying that the proposed options are bad in terms of cooling or noise, they simply do not fit.

If your suggestion is to go with a liquid cooler, i simply want to be sure that the pump is not generating noise otherwise it would be a waste of money for me.

Great!
So it does not overlap the first slot?

Is the 15mm fan quiet and can a standard 25mm be installed?

Doesn't overlap, about 2mm space between them. So quite tight, but it fits. Because of that, 25mm won't fit, that would make it overlap. The fans are super quiet. :thumbup:
