It depends a lot of your PC case also.

And NH-D15S would probably be more compatible:

Though I'd suggest to look at Deepcool AK620 or Scythe Fuma 2.

Spoiler

Fuma 2 would be inferior of the three, but should be able to cool most if not all AM4 CPUs.

Case is no problem i was just thinking about the space betwen the RAM and the Cooler and The VRM cooler and the NHD-15.

That's a bit difficult thing to predict, as only someone with the motherboard and cooler combo would be able to verify 100%.

I don't believe Noctua has an NHD-15 cpu cooler. 

 

If you are talking about the NH-D15, the front fan overhangs the memory area. It would have to be raised ~12mm to clear memory modules increasing the overall cooler height to ~172mm. Noctua compatibility data indicates no issues with the STRIX X570-E motherboard, i.e. it should be clear of the VRM heatsinks.

What ram do you have?

 

If you don't want to move your fan up you will be looking for any ram with a max ram hight of 32mm, if you don't mind mooving the (front) fan up you have 65mm of ram clearence. Id personally recommend going for low ram so your fan is in direct contact with most of the fin stack. 

 

As for the motherboard, I don't know.

AK620 is going to be cheaper and cool just as well. Clears TridentZ5's just fine.
