yalo.. more suitable to put blow in(blow toward proc) type cooler oni..

i prefer get a blow out(blow to bhind) type.. blive will hv beter air flow than blow in type..
so mayb js go to xigmatec sd964

blow down type can cool other components as well, give & take loh...

The only drawback with xigmatek sd964 that i think is that the hsf can only be mounted vertically, which means the hot air would be blowing up towards the PSU..
I kinda like my old HyperTX2 which blows to the back which coincidentally just where my rear exhaust fan sits inside my oldie CM Praetorian case..
I'm itchy to try o/c my cpu but just can't yet since i haven't gotten my hands on any ramsinks to be paste on my mobo pwm's..

Added on October 17, 2008, 12:45 pmLucky u, i bought my SD964 at RM149.00

did u mod ya side panel mate? i blew 2 holes at d side (near hdd there, rite above sb area), makin my transparent window looked a bit cacat (but gud enuf to cool d nb which integrated w/ sb during nf4 era).

RM149? abit overprice
cant put horizontal meh? i put mine horizontally blows the air backwards.. here the ss
EDIT: Maybe position of the bracket on ur mobo different from mine.. if that so than u need to buy another mounting kit..
lucky u to have such bracket... xigmatek really ignore amd users coz most of their tower cooler are blow up (instead of blow out) type...
