What's the height of the CPU and stock cooler? I need it to fit in a VERY tight Antec Aria cube case. Thanks!!!

Well, I can't guarantee they are all the same height, but I just pulled one off a bad motherboard in the last couple of weeks. I measured it at slightly less than 2 inches high. Did some investigation and found someone else posted the height of theirs at 50 mm. Did a conversion and that is 1.97 inches high...which I would assume is the same height as mine. Specifically, they wrote: 50 h (including fan) x 90 l x 90 w mm, and weighs 267 g. Like I said, always a chance one is different, but I have a bunch of socket 775 chips and I think all the stock fans were around the same height.

Yes the full tower case fits most mother boards. It al least fits all amd, intel might be different though. The freekin' thing stands two feet tall.

msi motherboard, amd processor, fm2 socket and absolutely not a chance in hell it was fitting. Agian, not artic's fault. look at how the old cooler is attached. is it clipped or does it have pins. ? that should start you in the right directiion

Doubtful I built a pc for somebody and threw a GTX 560TI in it (9 inches). There was maybe half an inch of space left plus it covered the SATA ports on the board. Any other qjestions feel free to ask.

As for the cooler, I know the Ultra cooler fits in there. I believe it's the same size, but I can't say for certain with the v8. In any case, the rails allow an smaller SSD to mount via screws and slide in just as a full size mechanical drive would. I have an OCZ Vertex 4 mounted in mine, and what's more, I just press a button to pop the front fan out, and the disk drives slide right in/out. I love this case, and if you can get confirmation that it supports your cooler, I highly reccomend it.

I don't have measurements, for you but, they're a few mm taller than naked sticks, without the heat sinks. They fit well (slightly snug but, nothing that would make me worry,) without the heat sinks, under my Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (with fan.)

Really depends on the case you buy, any lga 2011 cooler will work. I bought a cooler master heat pipe one that stands about 5-6 inches off the main board. That may have been excessive as it interferes with some of the ram slots, however I have 32 GB on board with many slots open so it's not been an issue. The tower/fan cooler I bought are very quiet, where as a 1u cooler may be very noisy, but short. Look into 2u or 3u size coolers.

It is a universal power supply. I can't see why it won't fit a standard size CPU case.

I have an Asrock micro ATX board with a Hyper 212 EVO, and no, the fan will not fit over the last RAM slot closest to the CPU because of the extra height added by the RAM's heat sink fins. A plain ram stick without the fins would fit. However, if you don't slide the fan down all the way but stop about a half inch above the bottom, the Ripjaw will fit underneath. I've monitored CPU temps with this arrangement and so far the cooler works just fine even though the fan is 1/2" displaced, so I'm satisfied.

i'm using a Cooler Master Gemini II S524. it's only about 70mm tall. there is a significant amount of room above it, but i'm not sure if there is enough for your heatsink really. it would be close. one thing about my Cooler Master is that you can orient it so that it extends over the ram for additional cooling there. this is a great case and worth swapping cpu coolers, imho. MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 mb, AMD A8-6600K cpu, 16mb DDR3 Corsair XMS 1600 ram, HEC 585w psu.

Hello,The V8 GTS height should not be a problem with that case. However, please take care in picking your motherboard and RAM when it comes to clearance. Some RAM and motherboard heatsinks may pose problems if not researched carefully. I hope this helps.

Hey thereI don't use a Hyper 212, but I just pulled out my Gamma Classic and used a ruler to measure the top of the case judging from where the motherboard starts and it looks like with a standard ATX mobo, you'd have just about 16cm of space for a heatsink, so I THINK it would fit just about perfectly with the side panel installed. The Hyper 212 has fans on the side right? I wouldn't install it if the fans were on the top for airflow purposes.Let me know if you have any more questions, I'd be happy to do some more measurements if you wanted :)

This case has 3 5.25" external drive bays, all of which lock to secure the drive. It does not come with a heatsink, though it does have one case fan in the front. Most CPUs come with a stock heatsink. I haven't bothered with changing my heatsink from my AMD FX series processor, so I don't know what will fit in this case. A fully loaded fan configuration (two 140 mm fans on top, two 120 mm in front, one 120 mm on the back, and one 120 mm on the bottom) keep my modest 15% overclock below 45 Celsius.

You can play with the distance you put between the cooler and the ram modules. I'm sure it will fit

It really only fits a micro-itx board. I had an Intel micro-itx board in it that was the standard size and it barely fit.

Measuring my case it is about 6.5 inches from the motherboard to the side of the case. I read that the 212 evo is 6.3 inches tall ,so if your CPU is less than .2 inches thick it might just fit. It would be really close and I can't garentee anything without actually trying it in the case. I am not accounting for the additional room the window supplies so that could be another few tenths of an inch. Either way it would be really tight. The x-sniper is a pretty big case but its not too ecsesivly deep. Bottom line, I think I would look for a smaller CPU cooler or a deeper case but if your heart is set on this pair you might be able to pull it off, but keep the receipt.

Someone that has tried to install one might know if it BARELY fits but I don't think it does. The case is 6.9in wide and the hyper 212 is 6.3in tall which doesn't count for the processor rise, mb rise or any space between the sides of the case. If it did IMO it would be to close for comfort...
