Simple installation video here ^

Unmatched Compatibility
Zero RAM Interference

Focusing on providing the widest range of
compatibility, the H7 utilizes an asymmetric slanted
heatpipe layout to move the heatsink away from the
RAM zone, Offering optimal compatibility for RAM
with tall heat spreaders on both Intel 115X and
AMD platforms.

What case do you have?

I have a RAIDMAX Vortex V3 ATX-403WB Black Steel / Plastic ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Max cpu cooler height is 153mm. The cryorig h7 listed above will fit and works with the z170-a color theme. I'd suggest adding additional fans to the system.

Would that one fan not be good enough?

Ideally you want both positive and negative air flow. Did you purchase a graphics card?
If I were you, i'd purchase a different case. If you spend a little more, fans will already be included with the case. Did you already purchase this?

Do you plan on putting a graphics card in that build? If so, id definitely add fans to that case. At the very least one intake and one exhaust.
