Can someone measure their Xigmatek HDT-S1283 for me?

I'm trying to find a measurement of the Xigmatek HDT-S1283 from the mobo to the highest point on the heatsink. I'm guessing its close to 7" but I would like to verify. If any one can take a measurement or already knows this, that would be great. I have exactly 6 1/4" to play with in my case and not sure if the Xigmatek HDT-S1283 will fit.

when i looked at the reviews, it said that but it said heat ink size 120(W) x 50(H) x 159(D)mm so does that include the small heatsink from the cpu or only the big heatsink from above the pipes.

I think 159mm is the height, which is 6.25 in. Too tall for you. Look into a smaller or low priofile heatsink:

its 6.25"... would pretty much rest on the side fan, it may fit tho. If not, I guess I can go with the Sunbeam CR-CCTF 120mm "Core Contact Freezer if that clears the northbridge.
