Hi guys,

I currently have an i5-9400f and the stock cooler is not sufficient for good cooling. This is why I was looking into other air cooling options. I ran into the cooler by CM called the Hyper 212 which seems to have a lot of good reviews. I was wondering if this cooler would be sufficient for my CPU. I mostly just do gaming on the PC. Also another question I have is my case says it can support CPU coolers upto 160mm and the hyper212 website says the height of the cooler is 158.8mm. I know it numerically means I can use the cooler, but since there is only 1.2mm difference between the max and the actual height will this cause any issues when i try use this cooler in my case?

Thank you in advance.
