Hi everyone,

I have been searching for hours for a picture of TRUE heatsink on the P6T MB to determine if the TRUE heatsink will fit my computer case. Have anyone seen one around?

Which pc case do you have? What is the width of the case? Does the side panel have a case fan?

The thermalright web site has drawings of the heat sink with all dimensions. It also has a list of compatible motherboards.

The width of your case is 198mm. The height of the heatsink is 160.5mm. That leaves just 37.5mm for the motherboard, the motherboard tray, and a little breathing space.

I suggest you measure the distance from the motherboard or the motherboard tray to the left side panel to find out if there is enough room.

There may be another problem. You case has a slide out motherboard tray. When sliding the tray in or out the heatsink may not clear the frame of the case. You'd have to install the heatsink first, then install the motherboard the old fashioned way.

Have you considered alternative heatsinks? Here is a link to a web site with lot of information about heatsinks:
