Hi guys!

So I got to choose between these 3 coolers for my pc.

1. Noctua NH-C12P SE14

2. Noctua NH-C14 

3. Noctua NH-D14

 

M motherboard is UD3R X58A gigabyte.

I don't want that the cooler will hit the ram sicks, so i prefer somthing higher.

 

Thank you. :)

I'd go with Noctua NH-C12P SE14. It is quite high, so it should not interfere with the low-profile Ram. Check this image >HERE<

Also, I think this is Your motherboard in this photo >HERE<

Sorry for my low english, but I'm trying my best  ;)

You can delete D14 from that list. Its the one that WILL hit on anything other than LP ram. I can vote for U14S instead. Does you case have height limit or is there some other reason to list two top-down coolers?

Normal profile ram works just fine. Low profile ram is unnecessary for most coolers.

Fair point. HyperX Fury, Savage and Beast normal profile?

HyperX Fury and Savage would be normal profile without their heatsinks but aren't much taller so they should fit just fine. Beast ram is pretty darn tall and wouldn't fit underneath a NH-D14.
