hey guys!

first time posting in cooling thread i would need some opinion abit i have recently sold off my zalman cpu cooler and i was thinking to get a cpu cooler replacement. i have CM V8 in my mind. however, my main concern is whether can i actually fit V8 into my mobo

my mobo model is DK 790FXB-M2RSH. i would appreciate if any owners of the mobo able to share their opinions towards any good aftermarket cpu coolers that they have used on the mobo. i have also attached the pic of the mobo model as below :



i'm afraid the CM V8 is not able to fit on the mobo due to the stock NB passive cooler (black color heatsink with "LANPARTY" red sticker) and the silver color heatsink any sifu can advice? i'm not really interested with CCF though

I did do some research on that together with the help from ah khoo.. managed to find couple of users with CM V8 pairs with DFI LP DK 790FXB-M2RSH and a review with CM V8 pairs with DFI LP DK 790FXB-M3H5.. basically both boards have the same layout.. so I am pretty confident that it will fit nicely onto my board

Bought a CM V8 from zhen wei this morning from his office and hoping to install it within these few days. I shall post my temperature result soon here

Thanks for the help though
