hello folks

 

im planning on buying a corsair spec-03 case

and i want to buy a hyper 212 evo 

 

regarding to the corsair site the spec-03 supports cpu coolers up to 157mm

according to my retailer the hyper 212 = 159 mm

 

so in theory it should not fit but maybe one of you guys has experince with it.

 

so my question is will it fit and if it dont fit do you know an alternative for around 30€

????

ty in advance

A Corsair 230T can fit a Hyper 212 EVO so I might just get a different case if I were you.

it is more expensive isn't it?

That could work for you.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Keep in mind Hyper T4 is a noticeably worse cooler then the 212s, due to the design of the heatsink tower.
