Will these coolers fit in my case? Which is the best option?

[Aslanthelion36]

I am currently using the hyper tx3 in my case (corsair SPEC-01) but I am upgrading from fx-6300and r9 280 to 4690k and gtx 970. I want to get a good cooler that will fit in my case and let me overclock. I can get the hyper 212 evo, or I can wait a little bit and get a noctua NH-U12P SE2. I know my case only supports coolers 150mm high, but when I look down into my case, it looks like there is enough clearance. here it says that they were able to fit the noctua in my case:

I could do that, or I could wait longer and get a h80i cooler and swap the fans for sp120's.
The noctua fans don't match my builds black and white theme, so I could swap the fans for sp120's, or would that ruin the point in having the noctua cooler? I can also do the same with the 212 EVO.

Thanks

The Hyper 212 evo is 159mm high.

The Noctua - http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=productview&products_id=31&lng=en&set=1 - is 158mm high

The Cryorig H7 is 145mm high http://www.cryorig.com/h7.php

or a Noctua Low Profile cooler eg http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=19797 66mm high

On par with the 212 evo, if not then better.
