I'm looking to get a new case and have my eye on the Carbide 400Q. It says there's room for a 170mm CPU cooler. I already have an Enermax ETS-T40. I think there should be room, but how tight a fit would it be, and how tight a fit is ok? Anyone used these two items together?

Thanks!

Plenty of room.
This is the C same as the Q but with a window with a 160mm cooler same height as yours.

That's great, thanks for taking the time to dig out the info and pics. Looking at that 400C, I'm even more happy to be getting pretty much the same case. Clean, simple and roomy. And quiet!

I've added the CRYORIG H7 to my partpickers list for future reference, thanks! I've had the Enermax for a few years, it's still doing its job.
