I bought the Thermaltake V3 Black AMD edition case and according to the user's manual, the height limit of the cooler is 160mm. According to Cooler Master the height of the V6GT cooler is 165 mm. http://www.coolermaster.com/product/Detail/cooling/cpu-...

However I know that sometimes the height limit is a little bit higher than stated (even if the cooler is slightly pressed against the side panel of the case).

I would like to be answered by someone who has actually tested whether the cooler fits or not.

The cooler was too tall, I had to cut off part of the plastic cover (around where the LED button is) to make it fit. However, if the whole plastic cover would've been removed (its secured by screws) there would have been no problem in fitting the cooler. The only downside of removing the cover is loosing the LED light.
