    Hello will this huge cooler (the noctua one) requiring a motherboard pull and will even fit?
    thanks in advance

    The Noctua Nh-u9b-se2 All-in-one Performance Cpu Cooler has these dimensions (see caption of specs below) then measure your case internal dimensions and compare if this cooler will fit inside? As even fitting this cooler you will NOT have to take out the motherboard, its just PnP (plug and play) with most cooers you don’t have to take out the motherboard.

    I believe any of the coolers designed for screw down instead snap to won't require removing the MB. If it's the snap type you'll have to pull the studs out and that's what requires the MB pull.

    There is no such thing, as all coolers for the i7 9700 have a 4 screw fixing system (see caption below). It’s a simple process to unscrew the 4 screws and you don’t have to take the mainboard out, you just have to clear the space to be able to do that, can’t have everything of both worlds! Also, get a top CPU paste like Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut paste, also it depends if you want a water cooler or a just an air cooling fan? As the best water cooler is the Corsair HYDRO Series H150i PRO and its most efficient cooling system for a CPU and the best fan cooler is the Noctua NH-D15. Go for the most efficient cooler and don’t compromise as it will last and cool your i7 9700 most efficiently and better for all applications.
