212 evo. For FX 6xxx/8xxx CPUs a 212 EVO lets you overclock easily. My max temp on my FX-6300 1.4v 4.2ghz is 50 degrees celcius, with a 27DC room temp

Don't have the measurements but I have a corsair 230t. I'm not sure if I want to go air or all in one water.

i found online you can fit coolers up to 160mm in that case. the CM hyper 212 evo is 159mm tall so it should fit! :P

if you want to go watercooled a corsair H60 or H80 should be more than enough too!
