I just measured. from the mobo to the top of the IFX is 170mm.




Can use on 4 sticks ram. 2 sticks use the Type L(low version) like mine. 2 other sticks use Type H(high version). The high version sits on top of the low version.

From the mobo lar. U sure u measure from mobo or not? I din measure from CPU socket coz diff sockets got diff heights. Just measure from the mobo.

still remember lor.. deal with u.. btw, ur PSU is ok..

thermalright measurement is base on their product.. not from mainboard (base) to end (top of heatsink)





i think for IFX, uncle ianho say "IFX is 170mm. from mainboard" is also like this..

for my question for uncle.. i need to know the height (tip to toe) for HR03 plus..




that PSU is ok.. none buzzing sound.. maybe u using it with ur 8800gts, that why it buzzing..

Picture uploaded edi.... see if it;s same as yours one or not... if yes, i go back and try measure again.

i think uncle say from mainboard.. not casing..




for my question.. also base on top of mainboard.. using paint only.. cant be sharp like AutoCad..

i hv correct my drawing..

thx for info uncle..... have it study hehe........

170mm can fit into most casing i think, cause most psu also 186mm if not mistaken...so add up should fit just right

Lolz, a gap at the upper of the mobo. I just realize that couldn't use the backplate... even thou the height for the main heatsink could enough.

u all need uncle ianho help for this measurement.. to clarify how he measure '170mm'.. but for me, i need to know about HR03

I measured the 170mm is from mobo to top of the IFX just like how sopen drew in post 131.

can fit dude only for full atx casing

mid casing like thermaltake tsunami its a gamble.. ngam ngam fit i think

tuniq tower height is around 150mm + 8cm side panel fan ngam ngam fit
thermalright ultra ngam ngam fit and have to remove the 8 cm fan on the side panel - 160.5cm
xigmatek HDTS1283 - 159cm.. have to remove the 8cm fan and have less than 1 cm.

stacker with the tuniq have to remove the fan on the side panel swing thingy... with xigmatek have to remove the whole side panel fan thing.
thermalright ultra aroound the same
ure ifx same lor...
sishh just realise
ITS INSANE...

uncle.. need ur help.. about the height of HR03 Plus..

Here you go:

From this review, the memory heatsink adhesive of the HR-03 PLUS is very weak.

Bro Ianho, did u face the same issues?

If use third party thermal adhesive, will it be too sticky and hard to remove the heatsink when you want to take it off in the future?

It's always a problem when ppl dont clean the chips properly b4 applying the heatsinks. It's not the thermal tape's fault. The tape that comes with the heatsinks is a good brand called Sekisui. U need to clean off the oil left behind by the stock thermal pads. The stock thermal pads leave a very oily white residue on the chips. If u just stick the heatsinks on top of that, it's sure to fall off.

The way I do it is to use Zippo lighter fluid to clean off all the oil. Then I use alcohol to clean off the zippo residue n the chips are like brand new with no oil on them. THEN n only then do u stick the heatsinks on. The tapes are very strong, u just need to clean the chips properly 1st. It's quite shocking to c a site like Tom's Hardware doing things like that actually. It's just basic knowledge to clean off the chips 1st b4 sticking on the heatsinks.
