Will CM 212 Plus fit into my case ?

I have an old full-tower Antec case, the Performance Plus 1080AMG, which I'm going to re-use for my new build (2nd built within the last 2 weeks)
Like this one : http://www.tweaknews.net/reviews/antecplus1080amg/

I'm planning to buy Coolermaster 212 Plus that is 160mm high.
I have measured that 1080 AMG will only have about 177-178 mm clearance from the base of the mobo to the side panel. That means I only have 17 mm clearance to count for the CPU socket height.
My question is how tall is the CPU socket in 1155 mobo ?
If 10-12 mm, do you think it is a gamble ?
Thanks.
