Cryorig H5 Compatibility

[TheCrimsonFuckr]

Hi I was wondering if the cryorig h5 would work in the corsair spec 02, searched on the interwebernets but some said it fits, some say it doesnt, and one amazon post said it only fits horizontally. So I would like to ask the LTT community and see if anyone has managed to put on in or anything, i have a ryzen 1400 and a msi b350 gaming pro with both ram slots populated by corsair lpx if that helps. The reason Im asking is because the hyper 212 fits, and its over by 2mm spec wise and with 1mm tp spare, so i was thinking if the h5 universal or even the ultimate would it. Thanks everyone for reading tho, sorry about my english it isnt great :3

H5 universal is 160mm in height

H5 ultimate is 168mm in height

Spec-02 only supports up to 157mm

So no it will not fit

And If it doesnt fit are there suggestions for another cooler with similar performance? Please no noctua, I hate the colours of those fans...

And like i said the 212 is over by 2mm but it still fits without scratching the side panel. 212 is 159 and spec 02 supports 157

H7 is 145mm and cools better than a 212 evo, there's that.

There is Cryorig H7 and Phanteks TC12DX. 212 Evo comes pretty close so I wouldn't risk putting H5

I guess I'll use the cryorig height checker... since the probably and maybes arent helping at all, and yes, I know there is an H7, I know it's a solid cooler, but it has white fans and it will ruin the colour scheme, and if you add a different fan to it it will be at the same price as the H5
