spi1ke :
I haven't checked the measurements as you say but looks like it's not going to fit, I'm really considering a Corsair H70 now. As for the storage I'm gonna wait a bit, I'll buy a HDD meanwhile, then when prices drop I'll get an SSD with some more capacity, as you point out it's gonna be a little tight with 50-60 GB as I use multiple applications frequently, and I really love the idea of an SSD boost for these programs.
Hi once again spi1ke
...If I was you I would be looking for a air cpu cooler instead of a water cpu cooler
...You never know what may happen with these water cpu coolers,leaks,etc
...Although they have been around for a while now,the Thermalright Ultra 120 extreme is not too bad,it is not large in depth and thus you can add the fans onto it from the ram side or the rear side (off course the rear in this case for your sticks of ram)...For these coolers though you have to buy fan/fans,fan clips also back plates for cpu bracket separate(LGA1156 cpu back bracket also fits LGA1155 cpu sockets),also you have to check the width of your case (220mm will be sufficient with a side panel that has no air intake fan built into it,add around 25mm extra in case width at least for a side intake fan if you so desire to have one which would now make a total width of 245mm plus extra in case (I have mine inside an old Kandalf Case with out a side panel fan built into the side window)
...I would check out the Noctua NH-D14 all in one cpu cooler,off course from NOCTUA (designed in Australia and made in taiwan,but some stuff is still made in Australia)...In the Noctua NH-D14 cpu cooler you get fans,fan clips and a multi fit cpu back bracket that you can use for LGA 1366 and LGA 1156,since LGA 1155 Sandy Bridge pinset socket number can also use the LGA 1156 socket pinset number cpu back brackets,it becomes very handy
...Now beware when ordering cases and checking online sites out that you get the actual case dimensions and not the card board box dimensions mixed up
...At some online sites also they actually get the dimensions mixed up,like the card board box dimensions they write up as the actual case dimensions...So it pays not only to visit one online pc hardware store,but several more also as well as the manufacturer sites that have made these products to see that the dimensions are proper case dimensions
...Some of these online stores like Techbuy in Sydney,Australia are real retards at doing this quite often as well as not wanting to take back returns of faulty products either,also parts are some times missing from the card board box and you can tell that the box has been previously opened
...I have bought from them before and I advise you not to buy from them even though they have an extensive range which trapped me into buying their gear
...Techbuy,Australia is very expensive also,infact I think the most expensive store I've seen and Australia is fairly expensive anyway
...They have been known to make you wait for up to 6 or more weeks before they tell you that your product that you ordered can not be bought in as stock
...Sorry about this addin of this online store,but I feel I have to warn people about them since they sell to anyone around the world
...Also some people have mentioned to me that they thought that Techbuy was really owned by the Hustler Magnate as he has gone into secret ventures around the world,but I can not verify this
...Although I have done a little research
,I did not try hard enough
...Anyway sorry about adding all this extra's in this area,but once "spi1ke" mentioned about the cpu cooler I just added my input advice in and it went further then I thought it would (in relation to the length of this post and also wrong area)
...Just listen to my advice in this case and it will help you out
