QUOTE(DG41 @ Aug 1 2011, 11:31 PM) have anyone tried cm vortex plus in sg01? fit or no? I use an SG02(similar in size and construction to SG01) and CM Vortex Plus. Had clearance issues between the Vortex Plus and the PSU. Basically you will find that the max height allowed in SG01 is 82mm(between motherboard and the PSU) and Vortex Plus height is 84mm(including 25mm fan attached). So you have no space to allow air movement. I had to take the fan away and plugged a 15mm slim profile fan so that there is some space for the fan to draw air from. If you can, you may try to get the Scythe Big Shuriken version B spotting a slim 120MM fan and height is 58mm only. So there is some space to draw air. this cooler is much more expensive through. Hope this helps.

QUOTE(DG41 @ Aug 3 2011, 12:35 PM) mean heat sink only can fit but cannot attach any fan? i realize the fan from psu is pulling air from outside(back) into the case which is upside of hsf. if can attach a 25mm fan is good already. btw, can slim fan 120mm pair with cm vortex plus using default fan clip? Added on August 3, 2011, 12:45 pmso hard to find any big shuriken now. no idea already pm seller but no reply. but i saw ppl a man selling this: » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « 140mm Fan is big already. but nickel heatpipe. or sumone have idea whre i can get am2 clip for my current zalman fs c77(gooding but cant attach to am2) The PSU fan is drawing air but it is not sufficient even at stock levels.Temps goes up to 70deg on Intel E8400 stock during max load. You wont be able to find a slim 15mm fan size at 92mm which is vortex fan size. The nearest is either sycthe's ultra small slim 120mm fan or coolermaster 80mm slim fan bu it wont be mounted securely. If you in KL, check CZone in Lowyat. Last time(months ago) got 1 unit left. p/s: I have seen crazy water cooling mode using Corsair H50 and you can try if you like. Just need to create a blowhole for the radiator.

QUOTE(TechnoG @ Sep 4 2011, 02:44 PM) ^ but uhmm, that casing can only fit mATX boards right? basically I need one that can fit my current specification, which I know is kind of..impossible  the closest you can find for full ATX board with possible space for a tower cooler would be the simple yet elegant Mini Tower size Coolermaster Elite 360. Does not conform to SFF size specification though.
