I bought a gladiator cooler but i can't use the 2 first slots of memory anymore, i don't really mind for now, but in the future i might want to get 8 GBs of RAM.

Does any of you can tell me of another cpu cooler i could get that won't obstruct the ram's slots?

Thanks

If you avoid those tall fancy memory sticks, I think you'll be fine with most HSFs. Especially if you install memory sticks prior to HSF installation.

Unless you're aiming for max OC, consider a top-down blowing HSF. It should help cooling the board's heatsink assembly.
