My only concern is will it fit in my case?

Rosewill Computer Case - CHALLENGER - ATX Mid Tower
ASRock Z77 Extreme4 LGA 1155 Intel Z77
Intel Core i5-3330 Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.0GHz (3.2GHz Turbo) LGA 1155

Good pick. Cheap and good performance.

Why not get this one: Seidon 120V for a few bucks more? I'm using it with my i7-4790K with good results. Just attach it to the back fan and no worries about the case not being wide enough.

Some of seidon 120v have alot of pump noise gave mine to a friend he is a DJ so he is part deaf he wil not notice.

The 212 evo Will fit but only just

I must be one of the lucky ones cause I'm not deaf and I only notice normal fan noise, lol. Oh by the way, what temperatures you were getting with the Seidon and for what CPU?

Thank you martin1982.

I appreciate the advice for the water cooled but I am not looking to overclock to the point that water cooling is needed. But thanks anyways

I was useing it on a hot FX 8350 @ 4.4 my temps was similar to the evo under the same conditions. I think my one was a bit faulty
