Dear all,

I was planning on building a new rig, and I had the Asus Sabertooth P67 mobo in mind. I saw it's a terrific performer, almost as good as the Maximus IV Extreme, but only half the price.

The problem with it is that it won't fit in my black and red build because of the Mosfet and Southbridge heatsinks' colour.

I was wondering if there is any way of masking those heatsinks with some sort of tape, so I can at least make them all-black or black+red. Has anyone tried something of this sort ? Is it OK to do ? And if so, what sort of tape should I use ?

Thanks for your help!
