Doom just pointed out one very important fact. Ultra 120 and Ultra 90 will place horizontal if use in Socket 478 because of the 478 retention bracket and it is not vertical placement like those we see in socket 775. according to Doom, this will damage your mobo if use in long run due to the unnatural way of placement and sheer weight of that heatsink.

So what's it's gonna be now bro?
Any other 3rd party heatsink in you're mind? blink.gif

I don't know about big 3D Rocket, but, can big thyphoon be used in that motherboard?

Won't there be any clearance issue?

irangan's motheboard processor heatsink retention is in the other way, you're motherboard processor heatsink retention is on horizontal, while irangan's motherboard is in vertical position, and with the DPS2 thingie, it'll make it harder to find a heatsink, and an Ultra 120 maybe would be a "NO" to his setup, who knows... sweat.gif

If buying something from oversea is that easy, i would have gotten myself a Noctua NH-U 12 now...

And together with the Noctua Northbridge heatsink... wub.gif

if that is the case, you can always use those Global Express Mail (Priority Mail) or courier company like DHL and Fedex and requested them to stick a 'Fragile' logo on the box. should be no problem.. normally ppl use cheaper method like Airmail, cheaper way = cheaper services smile.gif
