I have upgraded my sons gaming CPU to intel i7-7700k, motherboard MSI Z270 gaming pro. my current CPU cooler fan is not compatible with the new mobo as far as installation. I don't know how to choose the best cooler compatible with his current components. I do know that the distance between screw wholes is abt. 80mm. I am not sure what other specs that you need to help me make the best decision. I just keep reading that the i7-7700k runs hot, so I would like the "biggest"? CPU cooler that will fit. Any suggestions would be great
