Hey guys 1st post on forums and i have a case and i am upgrading my stock heatsink so i can overclock my computer so i was wondering if any of you guys know if the following CPU cooler fits in this case.


Cooler: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6835118019

Case: http://www.newegg.com/product/prod [...] 6811144151

I know the measurements for the cooler and i think it will fit but i just wanted to make sure it fits before i order it off newegg.

Thanks

Well, I see that case is 7.8" deep. The HS is 142mm (~5.6" ) which means you've got 2.2" overhead, into which must fit the distance from the top surface of the processor to the outer surface of the case... Which I'm pretty sure could only be a maximum of like... 1"?

So yeah... it'll fit :D

Thanks for that info. But i am also trying to figure out if its going to fit because i read a few thigns where people to had go out and buy a new cases because the power supply was touching it. So i am kinda wondering if somebody is actually using this setup or something very smiliar so i know for sure if its going to fit or not. Since i might have to buy a different cooler than.
