Yea of course you can check all you need is a ruler that has mm on it then just measure the fan.

OP my cores used to be even on temp, but now theres a 4c difference between the cores at idle. It levels out to the same when its under a load though. This was only after I OC'd though

I've never overclocked so that can't be it :S
I remember vaguely someone mentioning that it is possible I didn't apply the thermal paste evenly on the CPU, but I don't have any thermal paste handy so I can't see if this is true.

EDIT: Turns out it was you lol

The whole fan with plastic and all the dimensions should be 80mm long, 80mm tall, 25mm wide. I think that's it not 100% positive on that but I do know its 80mm x 80mm x 25mm/35mm so just make sure you have those dimensions and you should be fine.
