Hi guys i have not built a pc in a while and im currently looking to build a new one with the i7 8700k
which i understand can run a little hot, I have my eye on the new Coolermaster H500 with the mesh front panal the case is slightly smaller than the other models in the range and according to Coolermasters website has room for a CPU cooler up to 167mm in height, i am looking also at the bequite Dark Rock
Pro 4 cooler which has a height according to bequite's website of 162.8 mm, so looking at these figures it looks as though the cooler will fit the case, i am just looking for reasurance that it will fit and that im not missing something when manufactures give these measurments or that there should be a minimum clearance of a certain number of mm's above the cooler and case that would be considered as standard when fitting a cooler. Thanks for any help and advice.
