Anyone using a Gigabyte GA-8KNXP (P4-478) Board,
Have anyluck with a good aftermarket Heatsink & Fan that will fit with DPS VRM card installed (also around the nb HSF).
Thinking The Zalman 7000A-AlCu (I think it might 'just' fit in there) or Maybe the Thermalright line.

Thanks for the input

Pretty sure the thermal right sp-94 will fit.I have one with this fan <A HREF="http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/frozencpu/fan-87.html" target="_new">http://www.frozencpu.com/cgi-bin/frozencpu/fan-87.html</A> 35 dba isnt too loud .

And while your buying heat sinks get a vga silencer should only be about $15

Oh yeah 40k

Well the board (GA-8KNXP) is due in today also I have picked up a Zalman 7000A-Cu so I will give that a shot, and report back ;)
However if that does not work i will try a Thermalright 94 you suggested
Cheers,

Well, It looks like the Zalman will only fit is the DPS2 card is removed (its close though) So I am going to take it back and look at the Thermalright coolers.

What did you end up doing? I'm interested in getting some better CPU cooling so that I can try out this OC thing .

Thanks
