tj07 Phanteks PH-TC14_PE

[Satans yin and yang]

hi guys im planning on upgrading my pc. i already have the motherboard and planning to get an i5 4670k and i want the phanteks cooler to cool it . but it is a 140mm fan cooler and the tj07 does not look big enough to support it im wondering if anyone else has had this issue

Are you using this case?

Id look for water coolers like this. http://www.frozencpu.com/products/21235/ex-wat-270/XSPC_Raystorm_750_EX240_Extreme_Universal_CPU_Water_Cooling_Kit_New_Rev_4_Pump_Included_w_Free_Dead-Water.html?tl=g30c321

If you do not have case yet then look this.

yes i do have the tj07 i dont want real watercooling for my cpu because its too expensive the phanteks one is £60 in the uk and you get the same performance i am planning to get watercooling but only for my 2 r9 290s

Why not roll with this? It'll fit the TJ with room to spare, and it's quieter/ cheaper http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00C9EYVGY/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?qid=1388586296&sr=8-3&pi=SY200_QL40

Looked here,
http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=92
and it says;"Limitation of CPU cooler 162mm".
At the phantek site,
http://phanteks.com/PH-TC14PE.html
it says;"Heatsink Dimensions with Dual Fans 159 x 140 x 171mm (LxWxH)",so it wont fit.

Maybe some other options after a quick search,like the next three,
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-cpu-cooler-phtc12dx (comes in other colors too and quite cheap,the other color options are more expensive)
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/noctua-cpu-cooler-nhd14 (one of the best)
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/zalman-cpu-cooler-cnps12x (has got blue led fans so take that into account if you don't like that or do,is also the least high of these three=154mm high)
for a 4670k al three decent coolers i think.

I took another look and maybe the next two will look better with your motherboard,
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/phanteks-cpu-cooler-phtc12dxbk
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/be-quiet-cpu-cooler-bk017
a review about the latter in which both phantecs and the be qiet are compared,

Also look at the page where it is mounted->"finished looks",it's hughe.Not something where you want to have tall heat spreaders on your ram.Almost half that motherboard disappears.
