Yes, this fits just fine.

Note the Zipang is a very large cooler.
In cases such as the Antec P183, make sure to plug the ATX-12V connector as your slide in the board. If you do not, you can't reach the plug.

I use the Thermalright 775 bolt-through kit with Zipang coolers in my customer's machines. This does work, but is a total and complete PIA to install.

Zipang + Red Scorpion 140mm is a silent and effective combination.
At 1260 rpm, it is silent and efficient. The E8400 at stock speed is 16C above ambient room temperature.

This combination does an excellent job of down-draft cooling for the VRM and surrounding components.

I wish Scythe offered a native bolt-through kit, like the new Mugen-2 has.
