Looking for compatible (Quality), and on the cheaper side CPU cooler for my mid tower ATX case

strommj · Apr 10, 2014

I am trying to find a after market CPU cooler for my new build. I have this case (ATX Mid tower)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144291

And the problem I have, is that I heard the CM Hyper EVO does NOT fit this case. Should I instead go with a liquid system for the size issue? Or are there other smaller quality fan types?

Also, will having an aftermarket cooler hinder having a side panel case fan?

Also note this will be for a i5 4670K 1150 socket

Thanks.

Yes, having an aftermarket cooler will hinder having a side panel case fan.

Dont think you need it though.

Budget?

I was hoping to get something in a $20-$75 range

Actually, I was able to find a better one miraculously. This fan I found was a "low profile", so it suited my height issue at a reasonable 139mm. It also has a air flow of 33.623~73.969CFM. Although a little bit more expensive, I think I might roll with this model. Who knows, maybe I could still fit the side fan on with this
