Looking at getting a Cooler Master HAF X Gaming Tower Case - Black (RC-942) and a Asus Maximus VII Ranger Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard for the i7 chip.

I was looking at a cooler like the Alpenföhn Brocken CPU Cooler. But I hear something like a Cooler Master Hyper TX3 Evo CPU Cooler would be better.

However, it does look rather tall, and the case doesn't look that wide..

Can anyone say what heatsink is good for a i7 1150 Devil's Canyon cpu and the case above and fits nicely?

I don't want to buy something that wont fit.

TYIA.
 
bloody hell, you could fit a city in the hafx lol

I would opt for a hydro cooler if you are worried, they go for around £45-50 on OcUK, good ones too...
