Will it fit?

[Venomous468]

Hey guys! I have a coolermaster master box lite 5 case which has very bad ventilation and i also have a hyper tx3 evo on my i7 8700. So i decided to buy a new cpu cooler and after alot of searching i found this cooler called thermaltake riing silent pro red And the height on that thing is 160 cm and iam concerned that it wouldn't fit in my case, the case has 160cm of space too so iam wondering if it would fit or i might have to leave the side panel open?

you know... i actually have that case

 

there's something cheaper you can do

 

get yourself a mb500 front panel and click it on

You can get it separately?

yep, cooler master spare parts

 

it blocks the front io a little, but it fits natively

But i want to know if that cooler would fit or not

closely... but it will fit in the case

Would i be able to close the side panel?

yes

 

but again, it's like 5-8mm space left

Which is plenty. My previous case's sidepanel was 2mm off the cooler. Thats close. And cooler touching sidepanel is fine too. No harm, and with metal sidepanel, thermals could even be little better.

What are your temps? The TX3 Evo should be plenty for cooling.
