I'm getting ready to build a computer, and I've picked out the components after several days of being glued to the internet (reading, reading, reading, crying, reading, sleeping, reading...). I have chosen the M4N75TD, and the AMD Phenom II 1055T Six-Core CPU. I have based everything else on these choices, but my biggest concern is this: What cooling solution to use? At first I chose the Cooler Master V6GT, but after reading an installation guide (the most detailed I could find, anyway, since most guides are for Intel motherboard), it would seem this big square will cover at least one RAM slot. I cannot have this! So I looked up more cooling units, and ran into the Thermaltake Frio. Well, it's apparently easier to install, but still hovers over a RAM slot (they advice to use short RAM modules...). I've hit a wall, it seems.
I am wondering if anyone here owns this motherboard? If so, what cooling unit do you use? Does it cover any RAM slots? Was it a pain in the behind to install? I need help badly on this issue. I've been all over the place seeking advice, but haven't run into anyone who has this motherboard yet, so no one really knows what to tell me.
