Hey there Everyone

I recently Built myself a Mini "Budget PC" and wan't to try push the CPU a bit harder and am looking for an Air CPU Cooler that will fit.

Spec's are:
AMD A8-7650K Black Edition
Gigabyte GA-F2A88XN-WIFI AMD
G.SKILL Ripjaws X 8GB
Asus STRIX GTX 960
EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 - I know overpowered but there was a sale and was cheaper than the 650w.
Corsair Obsidian 250d

I recently tried the Phanteks PH-TC12LS Low Profile but when I put it in the graphics card it would not fit in the PCI-e slot. I even tried removing the Back plate from it and due to the Fan it just wouldn't fit.

I don't really want to go water cooling, I want to try keep the weight down. (This will be my take anywhere Lan PC) So was after an Air Cooling Solution that will fit.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers
