Anyone have an Infinity mounted on a Gigabyte DS3?
I plan on getting Shin-Etsu paste (based on this) and the case I have is an Antec P180.
The reason I'm asking is I was originally going to get a Ninja B, but some people have been having trouble mounting it on a DS3. I haven't read much on this forum or SPCR's cooling forum about the Infinity (I tried searching), although there seem to be a lot of trouble posts about the Ninja over there.
This was the goal of my new system build. I might go with the Ninja B still if nobody has mounted an Infinity on a DS3. There's a mod of the Infinity's mount here.
I'm new to aftermarket cooling so I'm trying to figure out ahead of time whether my hsf+cpu+mobo+paste+case will work well together before I buy it all. I'm 99% sure it'll fit in my P180, but I have no idea if it'll work well with the DS3.
Also, does anyone have any good newb guides? Like, I just learned what lapping is from the mod link above.
Thanks for your time.
