Which 680I? I have the EVGA and it fit on my board with no problems. Some people said they needed to use spacers and washers and what not to avoid some resistors but I didn't have to do any of that. Later revisions FTW.

As far as your case goes the Tuniq width is 6.1 inches or 15.5 cm if you use metric. Where as your case width is 8.3 inches or 21.1 cm so you should be good to go either way. I have a Silverstone TJ09 case and it fit fine except for when I was sliding my motherboard tray back into the case the Tuniq wanted to rub the top of my case. So I had to unscrew my case a bit and pull it a part slid the tray in and then tighten everything back up but aside from that it wasn't very hard at all.

Well, I hope this helps you decide on getting the Tuniq it is indeed a bad@ss cooler.
 
My board is EVGA. Im realy leaning towards getting this cooler can you tell me what your temps are and what kind of overclock you have if any

I have an E6600 I have it OC'd to 3.5 Just can't seem to hit a stable 3.6 probably a voltage issue though. My temps are perfect since recently going to 3.5 I'll hit right at about 50 to 52 on load and I'll idle around 40. Granted I OC'd to 3.5 lastnight and it was rather cool in the house. I'll have to check and see on a hotter day to see what my temps will be like. But the Tuniq is very nice indeed. Although my case helps and the 5 Silverstone FM121 help as well. I'll let you know when I get home what my temps are during the day vs at night but shouldn't be that big of a difference.
 
Those are nice temps for a 3.5 OC I think im gonna buy it. I keep it cool in my house year round so I dont think that should be a problem

If your ambient is good year round then the Tuniq will be awesome for you 😎 My house sucks in the summer. :-/ I live in Georgia. I don't think you'll be disappointed though.
