I would like to upgrade my case to an aero-500 but I don't know if my cpu cooler (hyper 212 evo) would fit.
 
Solution
It will "just" fit, your case allows for 155mm and the cooler is 155mm. However if any of your RAM heatsinks are so tall as to require you to move the fan up a mm or two, then the cooler wont fit.

Highly recommend going with the Cryorig H7 instead. Its only 145mm tall and wont interfere with the RAM slots and has better cooling. . If you don't want something quite as big you could go for the Cryorig M9. It has the same cooling as the Evo and is smaller at 125mm.

I ALREADY have the hyper evo and I only want to change the case.
I only want to know if it will fit in the new case i'm buying, that's all.
