It looks like the item fits within your case dimensions. The Arctic freezer is 157mm, and your case accommodates up to 158mm, so it should work without issues. You can place it comfortably inside.
It shouldn't matter actually. The airflow shouldn't be affected by that. And yes I believe it should fit. Usually if the manufacturer says 158 will fit then there is probably 160 of space to be safe
Thank you for your time and feedback. Your experience with the Arctic Silver thermal paste was impressive—temperature dropped significantly after application. Regarding your question, investing in a newer cooler could further improve cooling performance, but it depends on factors like design, airflow, and compatibility.
A premium cooler will definitely reduce temperatures significantly, though running on the standard cooler at these levels seems fine. Just make sure to dust it occasionally—you shouldn’t run into issues until you upgrade to a higher TDP CPU.
I can't provide a direct link, but you can check the details on the official Aerocool website or their product pages. Look for the "Max CPU Cooler Height" specification and verify the clearance requirements for your side panel. The standard range is usually between 130mm to 160mm.
