Carbide Air 240 owners, what CPU cooler?

[Toy Machine]

Morning Carbies,

I'm thinking of trying to get my hands on an air 240 because I have an itx board/system in a S340 elite. No problem with the case, just a lot of open space and would like to try the shape of the 240. Only problem for me is I have CM Hyper 212 cooler that is 158mm and the case only supports 120mm in height, so my questions comes as what CPU cooler do owners of the air 240 use?

Thank you in advance

I had/have a 540 air case in my garage and when I was using it any of the corsair aio worked great but soon as I put a 212+ air cooler in

It would be right against the side panel window and could feel vibrations from the fan.

Was not a good experience as well the heatsink would heat up naturally this making like a small burnt like mark against the perspex pannel.

Maybe just change your title. You asking about an air 240 I assume then, not the 540.

Meant to put 240 xD, was looking at both at the time xD Thanks for the heads up.

You'll have to look at a AIO like a corsair H60. No locally available low profile coolers are worth a second look.

Use an aio or low profile cooler (like a cm gemini). Cooler and gpu height is a problem in this case, find the right components though and you will be very happy. I had a total of 8 fans in my old 240

Yeah this is my problem, don't particularly want an AIO even though don't have anything against them, I just like air cooling more. Hence the thread, I couldn't find anything worthy. Would ideally grab a Noctua but not an option.

Anyone else seeing the irony in the name of this case?
