Well guys I have my old q9550 and my old case NZXT Alpha. I was thinking about upgradeing it to new 4770k but my main " problem " is that Im not sure if intel change size of fans or they stayed same from q9550 generation.
 
Solution
Fan sizes have not changed but you will need a Haswell Compatible Heatsink which comes with a fan anyway so you have nothing really to worry about as long as you are getting a new heatsink.

If you are thinking of using any third party Heatsink, just make sure they are Haswell compatible
