I have knocked up a little 1155 setup a while back, and it has a 2.6Ghz I3 in there and thats great for the space that I have for it, but I am thinking of actually using the thing properly and so I will be getting an I5 or I7 and the room is extremely limited.
Its a GlobalWin120 case. there is currently a dirt cheap low profile akasa cooler in there and thats doing a surprisingly good job, and I do have a GlobalWin 130 case that I use as my main Linux box and that takes a 120mm AIO Cooler, but as I said, its in use ( the 120 was supposed to be a white version of the 130 but the 120 does not take an AIO other wise... LOL )
Anyway, Im sticking with the 120 case, and so I am hoping to aquire a good cooler that will wedge in... It cannot be more than 3 inches high, including fan.
Any ideas? I have a couple of ideas but I would like other input cos Im always ending up buying junk that is usually wrong.
