Low Profile RAM?

Just built a new home system (see my Home Build on my rigs page) that has 2GB of Corsair memory. Given the sharp drop in memory prices, I was considering pumping it up to 4GB, but my heatsink won't let me use the last RAM slot (of the 4 available) due to a height issue. Is there a decent vendor for low profile RAM sticks? Thoughts?
 
RAM comes in industry standard "packages" and modules are generally all the same height. I know of no "low profile" memory available.

It might be easier to go with a different HS design.
 
sometimes its possible to put the ram in first then remount the heatsink, allowing you to use that last slot, also ram without built in heatspreaders tends to be a little bit shorter then ram with heatspreaders which might be enough in your case, pictures would help.
