Default Antec 902 and cm hyper 212

Would the CM hyper 212 cooler fit in the antec 902 with the side case fan? If not, can you guys recommend me another Core i5 cooler?

Thanks

well the n520 fits in my system with clearance to the fan and I believe the width of the 212 is a little smaller.


that's an antec 900... pretty much the same thing (look around 5 minutes 40 seconds for a picture)

I know this might seem obvious but couldn't i turn the cpu cooler so it blow air out from the top? That way it would fit in the case with the side fan on.

like I said it should fit blowing from front to back... if you turn it onto the cooler on its side it will have different dimensions and may not fit...
