Cpu cooler for coolmaster 330 elite

[deamer44]

my case is -http://www.ebuyer.com/product/135101

Im wondering what the best cpu fan would be that could fit in this case, also im using a evga 650i ultra motherboard and im wondering if the new cpu cooler would fit ( as i think the nothbridge heatsink would reasonably close to the cooler). Im currently looking at arctic pro 7, but money isnt a problem.
Thanks alot Tom

That board will fit an AC7 with no problem. I just built a PC for a client with the same board and similar cooler and it fit with no issues. I also have the CM330 with some old s939 parts and it houses a tower heatsink with no issues as well (just be prepared to take the duct out).

I've got a thermaltake Big Typhoon in there, fits perfect, even with a 38mm fan like the panaflos (mine was way too loud so i switched the panaflo out for the s-flex). I'm pretty sure you could fit a Themalright Ultra 120 extreme in there too.

i packing a xigmatek s1283 in mine. super tight fit though. like, the tips of the heatpipes are right in the grill where that duct used to be. but it does fit, side panel on and everything.

Forgot to add, I also removed that duct, otherwise the cooler wont fit.

Is that the Xigmatek cooler that doesn't normally fit into cases, the super-huge one?
I have some CM330s, and was interested in using those coolers for my quad-core, if they fit.
Any idea if they fit in a XION XON-403?

it's the biggest they make afaik...

fits my 330 just fine. no idea about that xion. guess you could compare dimensions to get an idea, unless you find someone that has tried it.
