My case says that has a 160mm available space for an air cooler... Has anyone been able to fit a Noctua Nh-d15 of 165mm into a 160mm case? Custom build case: 160mm for a cooler. Cpu cooler: Noctua NH-D15 Be specific...

Are you sure you haven't purchased the NH-D15? If not, consider the AK620—it works similarly, costs less, and stands at about the same height, roughly 160mm. If you already own it, let me know how I can help further.

What situation? The specs stay the same, but you're wondering if it's a typical issue. You can check PCPartPicker for builds and see if any use the NH-D15. If you don't find anything online, you might need to purchase the case, adjust your plans, or return it if it doesn't fit. It's worth noting that several NH-D15 alternatives are available now, matching size or slightly better performance.

SOMEONE HAS ALWAYS MANAGED THIS SIZE IN A 160MM TOP MOUNT. It's not a tough issue at all!
