I'm looking into replacing the stock CPU fan/heatsink from my i7. Temperatures lately (combo of what I'm playing and the outdoor temperatures) have been creeping up there. I'm using this mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188046 and everything's packed into an Antec Nine-hundred Two case.
I've dug around/seen suggestions for Noctua(?), but wondering what will actually fit-- from the looks it's about a 6 inch space between mobo and the side door or the case. Any suggestions of what's actually decent? Water cooling is out (I don't trust myself all that much), and I have, at maximum, about 85$ to play with.
Pic of inside (and before any squeals of cord management nightmare... oh yes, I know. It's getting rectified when I replace the CPU fan/heatsink): http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/8403/dscf3603.png
