I've been searching the net for half a day trying to find out if the Thermalright Ultima-90i does indeed fit in the CM-Stacker 830.. but so far it would seem that no one has confirmed it either way, only speculated.
I'd personally prefer to put a lapped Ultima-90i if I can retain the 4th fan because I have a hefty rig, and the reduced size of the CPU heatsink + extra case fan would greatly improve overall airflow.

Anyone here know this for certain?

The max height of the Ultima-90i measures at 139mm compared to the Ultra-120 eXtreme which is at 160mm.

Cheers,

P.

the heatsink will fit, but the main problem is with fitting a 120mm fan on the Ultima90, I think nearly 2cm sticks over the top of the heatsink.

but from what I've seen with the TRUE, the Ultima90+120mm fan should be low enough to allow that side fan over the CPU

Yeah, but I believe there is room enough to push the fan down, albeit probably stretching or bending the clips, so that it is closer to the base rather than poking out of the top.
I've done that with a few TR sinks in the past.
