By the look of the case shot you have I going to say no on all of them, for now.
What is your case? From the looks of the image you posted I think all the coolers are too tall. Then on top of that the RAM cooler you have will prevent the coolers from bolting up due to it covering the 4th ram slot, so that will have to go.
Kudos on cramming that much hardware in a small case.

Hi
Thanks for reply.
I am using SilverStone LC-20M case. I do not mind tall case as I never put cop cover. (for better cooling).
And I am ready to remove ram cooler if it helps...

If your running it with the top cover off then they will all fit. Might get the side cover on with the NH-U12P, it will be close the case is 170mm tall and the cooler is 158mm. Take into account the standoffs & motherboard it will be real close. The NH-U12P does cover the black RAM slot, the fan clips could get into the heatsink on the dominators, but monday I can snap a couple of good images for you showing what is covered and not.
The NH-C12P will fit for sure with the side cover on, and with the system laid down it would perform slightly better then in a standard case. Its way better then the stock cooler.

Here are the pics, there is an upside. Since this is a HTPC that means it wont be moved a lot so one spring clip is enough to hold a fan on. So the RAM side clip can be left off.

We only test the coolers as someone would buy them. There is no doubt that the coolers would be in a different order if the same fan was used, but a that way is not a good representation of what your buying.
