Doing research for my upgrade from stock Inter cooler for E7200. CM hyper 212 looks a good deal and performance wise.
But read something about it cann't fitted into a CM elite 334, can anyone  confirm that?

Dimensions of cm hyper 212 is 122*92*160, Dimensions for CM Elite334 203*413*485 (pulled from some random websites).

Also my CM elite 334 has a side panel air duct, is that means for a better air flow side blow woudn't working as efficient as
a blow down one as the stock interl one in that design?

For some reason, my reply disappear after I sent it, so here I go again...
After did a measurement myself, turned out it will be a tight fit or maybe will be not fit at all
as the cooler is 160mm hight and my case is measured roughly 170mm deep from motherboard
to another side panel assume I take out the air duct.

I think I am going for something smaller like the CM GenmiII S or Xigmatek HDT-S963, hopefully
they are still able to keep my OC rig from burning.
