Hey guys. I was just refining my pc parts list and I guess I could have some issues with my CPU cooler being too big.

And the case I will be using is this:

Sorry for being like.. Really vague. I obviously plan on overclocking. But I don't plan on water cooling right away. Does anyone even use this cooler or case anymore? I know these arent the newest and brightest,  but I like the looks of them. Or would anyone know the depth of the case?

Little tip. Use product pages for information, and I'd use them for linking too. Case fits 170mm coolers which should be basically all air coolers. And Corsair is know to give few mm extra. Coolers height is 172mm, so you are really close. If you can have easy returns, why not try it.
