Hello,

I was going to buy Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme for my Q6600, which lies on my desk.

My case is ATX case and Dimensions: 8" W x 16" H x 18.5" D

Do you think it fits inside my case? We have to take MB size in considerations too (maybe one inch?), I have ASUS P5N-E SLI.

if it does not fit inside my case, what is the best cooler I can get for my Q6600 that fits?

Thanks for your help! Appreciated!

Thermalright ultima=90, basically ultra10ex but smaller uses a 92mm fan instead of a 120mm fan, performsn just as well pare 1 or 2degrees.

Ultra 120 Extreme outperforms the Ultima 90.

It's just once you go past the Ultima 90 you won't gain more than 4-5 C from what I remember.

I decided to go with Tuniq Tower since it is total of 15.5cm in height. This fits most cases and my case is 20cm. Also I saw couple of reviews where Tuniq Tower was left behind Thermalright 120 Ultra Extreme by 2 or 3 degress.

Difference is more like 2 - 3 degrees but depends on the fan used.
