Will a Xigmatek S1283 fit in Antec Solo?

[pilchard]

Hey there...just a quick question. Looking to get a case for my build and was looking at the Antec Solo, but not sure whether a S1283 will fit in? I've ordered the cooler and retention bracket already and plan on getting an Asus PQ5-E motherboard, and a HD4850 also.

Any ideas? Will it fit?! I've searched the net for a good while but can't find any conclusive answers to this.

Thanks

Why wouldn't it? As long as Solo is standard ATX w/o a side fan.

Look like it will fit. Just in case see the bottom link for low profile coolers.

wasn't sure because it is supposed to be a very large cooler - 159mm deep and I had heard of a few people who couldn't fit one in their cases. The case is 206mm wide so slightly narrower than most. I think it should fit but I just wanted to see if anybody on here had used both to be sure

will it fit the cooler in an antec 900 without removing the side fan
