Hey all,

Just wondering what the largest CPU Cooler people have managed to fit into an Antec 900, I'm currently using an AC Freezer 64 Pro and it has loads of clearance but am looking to move to either a Noctua S12 or Scythe Ninja and passively cool it....

Anyone got any pics of some of the larger coolers in this case?
 
I have Scythe Ninja in mine, which is a huge air cooler. I belive most air coolers will fit inside the case but it mostly depends on your motherboard and the spacing around the cpu socket. With my DFI mb the 120mm fan would only fit the cooler on the side facing the front of the case because certain things would obstruct it if it was placed on any of the other sides.
I also had to remove the internal 120mm fan bracket (the one behind the 4th,5th,6th drive bays if you count from bottom upwards)
 
I have a Tuniq Tower on a Gigabyte DS3 motherboard in mine. All fits ok, but it takes up a bit of the space needed for a side mounted case fan, if you wanted one.
