On their website is says socket FM1, witch is similar to FM2, so Yes. It will fit. And if you have poor airflow in your case, a AIO may not help your temps, invest in some better fans.

on the side of our case is a 120mm fan mount, a few centimetres away from the cpu so, that would bee good enough I guess

That would help, but pushing in more air, and having the h60 would make your temps a lot better. as long as you used the H60 is an exhaust

of course (who uses watercooler as ''not'' exhaust cooler), the 120mm corsair h60 must be much better than the boxed one, since its directly at the wall of the case and the fact that water transports heat much better

how when the air flowing over the rad will be hotter than the air that would flow over it if it was an intake?  Don't be silly

A cpu will be cooled better in intake and in exhaust it keeps other things cooler

but both versions will be good enough
