Cooler Master V8 gts compatibility question

[parv0609]

Hello everyone, I am thinking of buying a cooler master v8-GTS cpu cooler and was thinking that will it fit in my CM K281 case.

My specs:
mobo --> Gigabyte Z77x-Ud3h
Ram --> Gskill Ripjaws X
Processor --> Intel Core i5-2320
Case --> Cooler Master K281

CPU cooler height: 162mm / 6.4 inch < case allowance

Cooler height 166.5mm

Sorry it wont fit.

Go with the Cooler Master V8. Your case has a 16.2cm clearence for CPU cooler height. The CM V8 is 16.1cm high, so it will fit with about 1cm extra clearence.
