My new build is a Silverstone Sugo SG03 case, asrock z68 pro-m motherboard, Corsair Vengeance memory (2x4gb with tall heat-sinks), and an i5 2500k.
I can easily overclock with the i5 above 4.5ghz but the heat climbs above 70 degrees with the standard Intel heat-sink.
The Silverstone case limits the CPU heat-sink height to 82mm because of the PSU positioned above.
I have been looking at the Scythe Big SHURIKEN SCBSK-1000, but am not sure if it will fit on the mb with the tall corsair memory so close. Are there any other recommendations for heat-sink? I want to avoid water cooling as this will be traveling around for awhile.
Thanks
