Just installed my Ninja and Yate Loon, and it doesn't fit in my Praetorian, not even close. :(

On the up side, I went from 43c idle temps to 36c running dual SP2004 blend tests..

I think I'm going to go ahead and order the LL PC-7B Plus II from Newegg. I think without the removeable motherboard tray and the fact that it already uses a 120mm exhaust, it should fit ok, no?

It's 210mm wide vs. the Praetorian 196mm wide. Anybody use a Ninja in their LL PC-7x series case?
 
Dude im sorry for laughing so hard but that pic is hilerous. :) It is why i stay away from that particular HSF.
 
Oh, don't get me wrong I'm very happy with the cooling performance (arguably the best there is). It's just ginormous.

Truth is I've been eye-ing that LiLi for a while because as much as I like my Praetorian, it's cooling system is not nearly adequate.

about how far does the heatsink itself stick out?

Beyond the side of the case? The heatsink sticks out about 1/4", the fan sticks out about 1/2".

oof, thats harsh, only a 1/4" out, now im hoping that my hyper 6+ will fit in the ATC-210b i have comin in :eek:
 
Well it doesn't stick out as far as the first picture would suggest, but it definitely doesn't fit.

Why not unmount the side-panel window, then re-mount the sidepanel window on the outside, with a small spacer between the window and the side? That way you would still have a window, and could keep that cooler.
 
My case doesn't have a window. Not a fan of that. I've already ordered the LiLi.
