Need a recommendation for a CPU cooler for a P5Q deluxe board. I planned to use an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro, but have read posts about interferences with this cooler on the P5Q board. Anyone have this cooler? Will it work? Any installation problems? Other suggestions? Looking for one that is quiet, cool, easy to install, etc.

Thanks,

it can be done, it's not impossible, in fact i will be mounting a zalman cnps9700 w/ the 110mm fan in the middle, so it will be huge, but still do able..

I'm also using a Xigmatek HDT-S1283 on a P5Q-E, very recommendable.
Just for your information, it also clears the NB heatsink if mounted the other way than how Proximon placed it (clears by aprox 2 mm).
