Im building a new pc very soon, only hang up is that idk if my cpu cooler will fit in my pc.
this is my case

and the cpu cooler I plan on getting is

Based on the specs, the case is 9 inches wide, and the heatsink is about 6.5 inches. I thought sure, it should fit. then I watched the video on it, and the guy said you'd need like 2.5 feet. Sure, you can tell its an exaggeration, but with the motherboard in place, along with this, idk if it'll all fit.

One more thing about this that im a little sketchy about is the cpu compatibility. In the pictures, it says its compatible with socket 1155 which is what I will have (i5 3570k) but in the general specs it makes no mention of 1155. Do you think it'll come with the 1155 bracket? lets share some opinions on this.
 
no side panel fans for me lol. I originally wanted to get that heatsink but I was planning on overclocking the hell outta the 3570k until I get my 680, so I was going to get what I posted above or a nh-d14, and due to aesthetics, I chose the one above to match my build.

Edit: screw it, h100i for me!

edit2: when I said h100i, I was implying I was getting a different case as well
