Fractal Node 202
Mini-ITX
Question about Fractal Node 202
would the Scythe Big Shuriken 2 Rev. B (5.80cm) fit in this case ? we are trying to build and htpc with a mini itx 2011-v3 but we can't find and slim cooler
if you aren not using a K or AMD it's perfectly fine;
however if you are I would say its best to get the Big S Rev B., it will cool a k and AMD well at 70c max unlike say a Cryorig C7 and L9i at beyond 80c even to 90c.
It will definitely fit; some people can remove the dustfilter and in some cases its perfect with the dust filter too (assuming its the orientation though..)

You could go for a Noctua NH-L9i. I've seen builds in the Node 202 using this one.
Nope, that don't fit. Max. height that will fit is 5.6cm. Maybe this Alpenföhn Silvretta (4.50cm) would be enough. 4.5cm. But, I don't know if it's a good cooler or nor.
