Would anyone recommend a different cooler at a around the same price?

Dark rock 4

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Where are you shopping / located? Budget?

What case and ram are you using and what are you looking for in a cooler?

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/

It's enough to cool, but you may need to set manual voltage in order to keep temps low.

Is my case too small for bigger coolers?

No it has a clearance of 160 mm. So check the specs of the cooler and you will find something called tower height and as long as its within 160mm it should be fine.

This is also good with a focus on quietness.
