For example, the U14S has clearance for full-sized RAM only on the 2011 chipset. On the otherhand, Noctua's website lists RAM clearance issues for their coolers. I don't know if this is only a problem for the LGA1155 chipset, but I moved my RAM into slots 2 and 4 instead (the motherboard manual said slots 1 and 3 or 2 and 4 worked equally well for dual stick performance). I have 2 sticks of full-size Corsair RAM, and the 212 is pushing a little too hard against the stick in slot 1. On the CoolerMaster website, I couldn't find anything about RAM clearance. I'm revisiting this topic for two reasons: I'm about to start overclocking my i5-3570k, and I could move the 212 over to a work computer and put the NH-U12S on my i5. The Hyper 212 Evo and the NH-U12S are are the same two cpu coolers I'm deciding between.
