Imo ram heatsinks aren't needed unless your using watercooling and overclclocking to the max.
Its fine to have brackets close to capacitors won't effect anything unless it bent them on mounting then you could have an issue.
What case do you have as size can be major factor on cpu hsf.
Golden orb is ok but its designed for low heights like a htpc style case also the Striker 2 formula has loads of heatsinks on literally everything so it might get in the way.
