I would be very surprised if it did not fairly roomy case that, obviously you need to look at your MB as well for heatsinks and your ram for how tall they are as they may interfere.
I would go for a Macho. I have a CM 690 (the first version) with an IFX-14 inside it and even though it fits, the case is deffinitely choked due to the big dual tower. Moreover you do not need this for an Ivy Bridge processor. The Macho is going to be more than enough and will be two times cheaper. You can even go lower with TRUE Spirit 120M or CM Hyper 212 EVO and still be fine for like 4.5GHz.
I have a Cooler Master CM 690 II advanced and I am using a Thermalright Silver Arrow SB-E, though I have turned it into a extreme version now. But it fits in the CM 690 II, though the larger middle fan (TY-150) comes very close to the side of the case.
I would show you a photo, but work has blocked photobucket
