    The SB cooler is better than the NB cooler on their nForce 4 boards :D

    Will your Tuniq fit beside the NB cooler? looks a little close

    yeah but he has it installed in an odd orientation (i.e. south to north instead of east to west) Don't like the Quad core overclocking results though, barely 400Mhz FSB. Lets hope its a BIOS issue and not a hardware limitation of the board as eVGA seem to have gotten the C2Q issues fixed since the last revision.

    Its a bit of a beast of a cooler, and i cant understand why the heatpipes and fins are posisitioned close to the cpu rather then being onthe opposite side between the cooler and 1st pcie slot. Unless you can add a fan to it. But this really limits your choice of cpu cooler.

    Awesome looking board. But as with most dfi boards you need to wait a while before a decent bios comes out.

    Yeah it fits, but the wrong way. Personally i love my evga board and my dfi. So its would be hard to choose a new board as i have had equal ammounts of trouble wiith both.
