Scythe Ninja 5 vs Deepcool Captain 240 EX White

[Teuminator]

CPU: i7-6700k

Motherboard: Asus Z170-A 

Case: Phanteks Eclipse P300 

I will be adding a GPU next week: ASUS GTX 1080 Strix, which is 298mm long and I'm concerned that the radiator from Deepcool 240 EX won't fit.

Total case lenght is 357mm and after I put a radiator+fans there will be 307mm remaining. That's a tight fit, is that ok?

I've also considered the air cooler Ninja Scythe 5 but something tell me to go with the AIO.

Scythe makes excellent CPU coolers and the Ninja might perform better than the AIO if you got some decent airflow in your case.
It's probably also more quiet. But if you go for it, make sure you won't run into compatibillity issues with your RAM.

My RAM has no heatsinks, it's low profile. That shouldn't be a problem

Update: I ordered the Scythe Ninja 5. It was 58$ cheaper than the 240mm AIO from Deepcool.
