Planning to build a gaming rig. http://pcpartpicker.com/user/vicenteg24/saved/8RfmP6

I was told that my cooler wont be able to fit in the case, anybody recommend any good cases to fit this cooler?

although it's your case choice and pcpartpicker show no incompatibility, i would suggest a HAF X, Define R4, 800D, NZXT Phantom 240(my favorite), looks even better and just to be sure

pc part picker says it will fit, otherwise, while i dont want to do the work corsairs website will tell you the max heatsink height it supports

It will not fit in the SPEC-02, are you looking for one in the same price range?

any case choice with a rear 140mm should be able to hold monster HSFs.

only issue would be how far up the fans have to be adjusted up to clear RAM

'sinks. the 120mm rear fanned cases are usually harder as they don't have a

lot of extension past the fan. unless the side panels have popouts or large

bulges for clearances monster HSFs have issues. the SPEC will have issues.

 

Corsair SPEC-02 Maximum CPU Cooler Height: 157mm (side panel bulge included)

Noctua NH-D15  Height (without fan): 160mm/ (with fan): 165mm

no more than 100

no more than 100

 

look at the phanteks enthoo pro $99USD shipped from phanteks with window and PSU cover.

handles HSFs 193mm maximum height.

but if possible yes

what about width? 

[airdeano]

what about width? 

 

ther enthoo pro is 235mm wide as the SPEC-02 was 220mm wide (side panel bulges included).

@Vicente Gomez

i'm building one now. a bit bigger than the fractal design arc midi, but has potential

for water cooling and massive air cooling. has fan slots for 120/140 fans.

two in the front, three in the roof, one in the rear and floor.

does the come with all those fans, or do you have to by it on your own

only comes with a 200mm in the front and 140 in the rear

[Vicente Gomez]

only comes with a 200mm in the front and 140 in the rear

do you recommend any extra fans that I can buy separately for it?

@Everyone Enthoo Pro has clearance for 193mm tall CPU coolers. NH-D15 should easily fit. Who said it wouldn't?
