Yes, it should. Scythe says the case has to be 19cm wide

cool im excited. thanks!
Offtopic but I didn't want to make a new thread for this. So the problem is that my temps are worst now since I upgraded my heatsink from Big Typhoon to Ninja. Its like 10 degrees hotter in idle and load than with the Big Typhoon. So what's the problem here? I used a thin layer of AS5 and the mounting seemed like it's pretty tight.

I have the bundled fan on it and 120mm Nexus at back of the case and pretty close to the Ninja. So I would assume it has a good airlfow.

hehe cool Antec p160w =P
oh on your degreees its probably the FAN since the NINJA+'s fan SUCK i suggest an aftermarket 1 tho. its optional.
the HSF =good CFM low DBA + the rare end fan [ CFM = w/e you want] === good airflow wel. better if you want low temps

I was thinking of mounting 2 fans on mine, the stock 120 and my aftermrket Delta that puts out 4x the CFM. I obviously wouldn't have both running, but connected to a fan controller so I can toggle either of the fans off/on.
Well maybe I should try the Antec Tri Speed fan and set it to medium. I used that with my Big Typhoon. Seems like the fan that came with the Ninja spins at much lower rpm.

Good idea but you have to make your own wire clips for the second fan as Ninja comes with only two clips for one fan.

Did you get your temps down with a new fan?

this is true, maybe I could modify a large paper clip to make some clips.

Just for everyone's info it will not fit in a Coolermaster ATC-s4000-SX1 case. that case is only a couple of cm wider than a cdrom drive, therefore any case that is that narrow will have problems.
