I'm very new to building PC's, let alone a gaming one. Just got an apartment and can finally afford to game on a PC rather than a console. It's always been my dream. I'm currently building one right now for a pretty hefty price. I want it to run whatever I throw at it; gaming, multitasking and all.

Anyway, the fan i've been recommended is apparently huge! It's a Phantek PH-TC14PE, 140mm. I've done some research on it and it's definitely pretty big. I was just wondering if anybody could help me figure out whether or not it'll actually fit in my rig? (Build Here: http://pcpartpicker.com/user/mguill2013/saved/G6Vj4D ) I've looked at some other threads asking a similar question, but i'm still not sure if it'll fit with the combination of my other components. I'm throwing 4x8 RAM in my rig and I'm not sure if that might take up too much space.

TL;DR: Will a Phantek PH-TC14PE fit in my NZXT H440? If not, could anybody recommend me a smaller fan that might do me just as well? I don't plan on overclocking or anything, so maybe a $75 fan isn't necessary anyway?

Cheers and thanks in advance. I look forward to learning more about hardware in this knowledgable community!

P.S. Any help, advice, suggestions, etc. on my build as a whole would be GREATLY appreciated.

Yes it should fit. I use to run one in a Noctis 450. If you are not overclocking no need for such a massive cooler(unless you are trying to air cool a 220w AMD cpu). The Cryorig H5 would be a good choice, not expensive but cools very well.

Thanks! To be honest, I actually like the look and price of the Cryorig H5 better. I'm not sure if I should go with the Cryorig Ultimate or the Cryorig Universal. Did some research and apparently the Ultimate is just slightly bigger for about 10% better performance. I'm thinking that should still probably fit as it says "Mid Tower Cooler". Updated my build and gonna go with the Ultimate one instead I think. Cheers! Thanks for the reply!
