Thread Starter 
Anyone know if this cooler will fit in a Corsair 500R? I read on one forum and someone claimed it doesn't. Couldn't find it anywhere online so wondering if anyone here know?

Thanks!

If that case has two120mm fan support next to each other then yes.

The Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme would most likely not fit well or barely fits in the 500R.
It doesn't seem a nice bet for the 500R.

Just look this thread.

That's the exact thread I found. That's the only guy who said it didn't fit. Not sure why not a lot of people have this combo. Thanks anyway.

Look this feedback from an owner on the Newegg about the Water Extreme and the 500R.

Owner: Cdino88

Water cooling made cheap and easy

Pros: Great cooling
Closed loop water
Fan control software
Easy installation
9 degrees celcius cooler under load than my hyper 212 evo

Cons: Very loud on extreme setting
Idle temperatures are 3-5 degrees higher than my hyper 212 evo
Doesn't fit in my case when I thought it would! (other thoughts)

Other Thoughts: Now as I was debating on whether to get the Corsair H100 or this Thermaltake water 2.0 Extreme, I was reading all the reviews on both products that I could find. Seeing that many people were having some issues with the H100, I decided to go with the 2.0 Extreme. Checked here on newegg what the dimensions were, and it states that the radiator is the same size as the H100! I have the Corsair 500r case which can fit a H100 in the top bay. So I figured, no brainer here, go with quality over quantity. Little did I know, newegg's specs were off! This is the first time I have ever had a problem with newegg, even though I did not buy this product from here!

If people are wondering, the Thermaltake Water 2.0 Extreme has a BIGGER radiator than the Corsair H100!

Great, I'll pass on this and wait for the H100i then.

Well, I saw in your rig that you are using the Havik 140.

I'm a 300R and the 212+ owner and I've heard that the Havik 140 fits my case.

Do you have any cons or issues abou the Havik?

I really like my Havik. Nothing bad to say about it except that it's the loudest thing in my system, but barely noticeable. Keeps my 3770K 4.6ghz under 60* on load. Looks nice(r) than other coolers (ahem Noctua). It looks really nice too. I would get it if you don't want to get the H100, which I'm looking to buy right now.

I'm just curious, does the Havik 140 fits in the 500R with the side fan?
I've heard that the Noctua fits the 300R without the side fans.

I have a NZXT FZ-140mm fan and it has a bit loud motor noise at full blast (1000rpm) but it's quiet at 800 rpm.

My other Cougar Vortex HDB 140mm is quieter even at full blast (1200rpm).
I'm quite sure that the listed FZ airflow is exaggerated.

Pretty much every fan specs are faked, you know.
