Hello,

I'm going to buy a Bitfenix Comrade case at some point. What concerns me is that is either CM Hyper 212 Evo or Corsais H80i fit into that case? PCPartPicker gave a warning that Hyper 212 Evo might not fit. However, PCPartPicker didn't warn anything about H80i, but I'm worried about the tube lengths of the cooler.

I saw there's a rear fan in the case. Can it be easily removed and placed to the front and then install H80i's radiator to that now free rear exhaust hole?

Thanks for any help!

From what I found the info, the 212evo will fit into the Bitfenix Comrade.

Here the picture http://www.pcgameware.co.uk/images/BitFenix-Comrade-Test-Rig-Installed.jpg they use the same case and the Raijintek Themis CPU Cooler, and the cooler size ( 122Wx50Dx158H mm ) is similar to the 212evo ( 120W x 80D x 159H mm ).

And you can use the h2O cooler too, here is other review. they use the ThermalTake Water 2.0.

Well, this is just for everyone who wondered and found this thread, it does not fit :( I ordered one my self and found out the hard way, a very tiny part of the heatsink makes it impossible to close the side panel, get something else
