Did the cooler master 212+ fit your mATX case?

[eek142]

Is anyone here using an mATX tower with a CM 212+? If so, how wide is your case? I'm looking to use it in a rosewill case that is 7.2" wide.

Never mind. Found this:

About 20 mm shorter than the 212+, so I think it'll be fine.

not sure what cpu you are using but the tx3 is substantially better than the stock cooling from the sandy bridge cpu's.

Gonna be slapping that thing on an i7-2600k. Glad to hear that!

Im pretty sure almost anything is better than the stock cooling that comes with the sandy bridge cpu's

They should really sell the processor and cooling unit separately.

yeah, im sure they could knock a fiver or so off the cost if they sold without the coolers
