Cooler Master Hyper N620 CPU Cooler

Is this cooler compatible with LGA1155 socket? Cooler Master website does not mention it. I want to buy it for i7 2600K.

Coolers compatible with LGA1156 can also be used for LGA1155...

My core i7 2600k is showing a temp of over 40C in BIOS, but in Windows (RealTemp) it is 32-33C. Are these figures OK? And why is it showing ~10C more in BIOS?

Cooler is N620 with stock thermal paste.

Because in BIOS CPU power saving features are not activated and also theres a bit of load(UEFI), so the extra temps. Its ok.

I would be buying asus P8Z68M-Pro mobo with i5-2500k , corsair vengeance 2x4 GB RAM sticks and an aftermarket cooler. I've chosen following coolers:
1. Antec Kuhler Box AP CPU Cooler
2. Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO Cooler

Will any of these coolers interfere with my corsair RAM sticks(moreover it is a uATX mobo)?

Hyper 212 Evo shouldn't have any problem. Not much idea about the Antec.

But according to this thread, the CM hyper 212 evo would create a space crunch on Asus P8Z68-M Pro mobo with corsair vengeance RAM sticks.
