As above, will the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo cooler fit in a CiT Sentinel case? If not, please could you recommend another case for a similar price?

Hm, even with 193mm it will fit. Usually those cases have 150mm (cooler limit), and Evo212 is actually 155mm but that doesnt make difference. If case is 193mm, give 10mm to motherboard and another 10mm to Evo212 it's still 175mm. After all I have same dimensions case as you state.

I would say that cases are always your personal choice as long as your components fit into case and you have spots for chasis fans. If you can go for 140mm fans and case which supports that, dust filters are another feature to look for. Other then that go for one which you like the most :)

Got the cooler and case yesterday, i can confirm that it does fit, though the copper pipes touch the side panel.

That doesnt change anything or cause any issues. If you have fan at the back or at the top of the case you are good to go. Although I didnt had any fans on case in begining and Evo212 did his work without going over 51c at 100% usage at stock speeds.
