Low profile CPU cooler.

Dilemma. Was just about to order the True Spirit 120 until I realised the diagram above shows the wrong height. It's actually 160mm and too big for my case.

Any other suggestions? I am stuck.
 
xigmatek loki. This is veering towards 92mm coolers.

Also liquid coolers should fit better, as long as you have a 120mm exhaust fan position. And no ram trouble.

Also the NH-C14, but expensive.

In any case, you might be probably be better off getting a better case and switching to low profile ram (Corsair Vengeance Low Profile). See the various trade-offs and how much it would cost you.

What height will fit in your case?

Edit: CNPS9900 is a good cooler too.

I think I'll get the Xigmatek Loki.

Looks like it will fit and reviews say it is better/quieter than my current one anyway. And it's cheap!

Or I might ask for the Zalman CNPS9900-MAX for christmas :)

As long as you can put the side panel on it fits ;)

If current is 143.5 lay something 17mm on it and if side panel fits you are golden. :)

Loki is about the same as TS120

CNPS9900 cools a little better. But fan is hard to replace if it fails

By hard to replace, do you mean fiddly or hard to get hold of?
 
Right, this is a getting a little annoying now :)

I have decided to get the Zalman. Can anybody find a picture of the dimensions? I want to see how far it hangs over the bracket (width wise) as looking at my board, it seems it will be covering the PCIEX16 slot (currently housing my gfx card) but not too sure.
 
Is that almost touching the card? It is twice the width of my current cooler and I was worried it might be too big for my graphics card to fit too.
