I was just about to ask my PC doctor to order me a coolermaster hyper 212 cpu cooler since my stock fan is absolute sh*t. He asked me if im sure i can even mount in there... I have an Asus Maximus VIII Ranger and a i7-6700 (non-K) CPU.

What do you guys think?
Will the 212 fit?
If i can't find that one in the market, what other fans do you recommend that's not an overkill, money is no issue.

Thank you.

Although money is no issue, replacing the cooler will not improve performance, reliability or stability for your CPU over the stock one Intel provides. The only measurable benefit you'll likely get is a reduction in noise.

On the cheap, Cryorig's M9i is a good cooler that will fit in a vast majority of cases. For a bit more, the Cryorig H7 is probably the biggest and most expensive cooler I would recommend for a locked, power-sipping 65w CPU.
