Corsair a70.

Hey guys.

So basically I went and ordered the Corsair a70 - Performance Air Cooler because my stock cooler just isn't doing it no more, the temps are getting quite high at times going well above average, even have to have the case off sometimes to keep it average.

Any how, I've got a:
DP55WB Intel Motherboard and a Antec 300 gaming case, I'm just curious, it'll be here later on but erm, will this even fit inside my case or on my motherboard without complications? :/ I'd hate to waste money.

I have not herd in the past with any issues with the Antec and larger heatsinks and the same is said for the motherboard, one thing you might have issues with if your ram has large heat spreaders on which can interfere with the large heatsinks.

When the cooler arrives have a measure up, if does not fit return under the DSR.

Yeah i'll see what happens.
What's "DSR?"

Oh that's great, I'll most definitely do that if I encounter problems!
Thanks a lot!

It will fit fine in your case, I have one in mine

Got one in my TJ07, had to actually dismantle part of the chassis to get the mobo tray back in, but fits fine with the side panel on

It's a very decent cooler in my books, don't think I've ever heard it over my GPU fan, and that isn't exactly loud!
