So I have a NZXT S340 Elite case and I wanted a better cooler than my current Cryorig H7 to cool my i7 7700K, now I know that the NH-D15 will not fit as its 165mm in height but I wanted to know if anyone has a NH-D15S that they're got in a NZXT S340 Elite case as the maximum height for my case is 161mm and the NH-D15S has a height of 160mm which is quite a tight fit. If it doesn't fit could you possibly suggest any other coolers that are about as good as this?
If you need to know any further specs please ask,

Thanks

According to NZXT, your case width is 203mm. According to Noctua, the hight of the cooler with supplied fan is 160mm. However, the specs on Noctuas sight are a little confusing. It says the hight without the fan is also 160mm which is impossible because the fan sticks out. I know this because I am using one right now as I type this.

The D15 and the D15S are the same cooler. The only difference is the S model comes with a single fan to save on cost. Thats why its called the "S". For Single fan.

Again, however you can put a traditional 120mm case fan on with the supplied clips so the fan does not stick out at all and simply not use the supplied 140mm fan that does stick out.

Will having a 120mm fan instead of 140mm impact the cooling at all or will it only be an increase of 2°-3° C?
