Best CPU air cooler?

[Watashi]

What is the best CPU air cooler that would fit in a mastercase pro? Suggestions please and thank you

budgets?

I personally recommend bequiet dark rock pro 3

100 and under really, I was going to put an entire custom water-cooling loop but decided against it. Leaks are unlikely but possible, I would rather try that on a cheaper build first. So budget isn't an issue

A noctua nh-d14 or nh-d15 is the best you can get (imo).

Does it fit on an lga 1151? I figured that it did, but it doesn't say so in the description

It does fit in, there are many builds with that cooler and socket.

I consider the NH-D15 the king of air coolers. There are some similarly performing coolers but they usually aren't as quiet. 

If you don't need the absolute best performance, the NH-U14S is probably the best all around cooler due to the thinner form factor being much easier to work around with.

Does it fit the LGA 1151 socket? and how is it with RAM clearance?

Yes, they support that socket. The NH-D15 supports ram between 32-64mm in height depending on how you mount the outer fan. You can see the specs on the manufacturer's website including ram clearance and any compatibility issues with listed motherboards.

The NH-U14S does't get in the way of ram.

For future reference: all 115x sockets use the same cooler mount.
