Ok so i use pcpart picker to pick my parts and it has a compatibilty thing.

 

and this is what i have so far     http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/KjPHbv

 

 

Nothing wrong other than the ssd but im not going to buy it im just doing a worst case scenario.

 

it ssays the cpu cooler will  fit

 

than i check corsairs site and it says the 120mm is most and the 412 slim is 132.. on review sites its sasy 130 is max. ,idk anyone have any experience or can find out. ik tried calling corsair but yea didnt work ou no answer.

For such a wide case, the Air 240 is disappointing in its CPU clearance. For reference, my cooler is 165mm and it wouldn't fit in the thing and that's a shade taller than the famous Hyper 212+. Checked the site and it does list 120mm as maximum height which isn't all that impressive give this case is considerably wider than many cases that can support coolers 170mm+. That cooler you listed is 132 x 106 x 160mm.

 

Why not get a Phanteks Evolv instead? Better build materials, crazy water cooling support and way more clearance for CPU coolers. Or if you want a cube, the Thermaltake Core V21 also has better cooling support as well.

Check out the Core V21 then. It's a compact cube with tons of cooling support.

If you're in love with the Corsair case, you could always get one of those coolers that is flat/compact with a 140mm fan on top or a high end cooler that uses 92mm fans, Noctua makes good mini coolers.
