Thanks for the reply but I haven't bought my case yet and I can't find any information about how big the cpu cooler can be.
Do you think a cooler master hyper 212 evo will fit in my case if not, then I'll get a coolermaster hyper tx3 evo.

According to the specs on a review of the case, it is 187mm (7.36") wide. That is a bit narrow for the 159mm (6.24") 212 EVO. I'm almost positive that will NOT fit. Have you considered a 120mm AIO cooler like the Corsair H60? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181030&cm_re=corsair_h60-_-35-181-030-_-Product

Yeah, you're going to have to go with coolers that have a smaller than 120mm fan. And ones that have a TDP of at least 125W. Here are some lower profile coolers that you may like that aren't too expensive. But if you plan to OC the FX-8320, you will want something with decent cooling ability:
