Cooler dimensions help!!!

[Rashmiman]

I have an i5 7600k cooled by a cooler master hyper 212 led cooler. The cooler does a pretty good job by keeping the CPU at 45 degrees under load. But the problem is it's too small for my case and i need a new one. I have my eyes on a cheap case Chiptronex GX2000 (pretty sure you guys haven't heard of it before). The reviews and everything makes the cabinet a promising purchase. But the problem is the max cooler height is 160 mm, which is exactly the dimensions of my cooler. My question is, will the cooler fit in the aforementioned cabinet? And when the companies talk about the maximum cooler height do they take into consideration the standoff height of the motherboard? Any inputs will be appreciated. Thanks!

Its too small? 

 

Also if the maximum cooler height is 160mm that means a cooler thats 160mm probably wont fit.

How do you figure that out ? It would fit but it would be touching the side panel if both measurements are accurate.

The chance of the measurements being wrong on this unknown brands info is very high, i personally would not risk it
