hi, im getting the eVga 680i motherboard, which i hear has a bit of a reputation for some whoppingly high NB and SB temps... i'm thinking of buying 2 of the thermaltake hr-05, and runing them without the fans, as they are suposed to be fairly good without.

However, will they fit on my board with an 8800gtx on there, and a Thermaltake golden orb 2 cpu cooler?

I know that the screw is too long to fit under the 8800gtx, but i can shorten this so its ok, however if any1 has any ideas as to decent heatsinks (for Southbridge especially) that will preferably fit under my 8800gtx, it would be cool.

Cheers Chris

Ps, also posting in Cooling section as its as much about the motherboard size and cooling as it is the heatsinks.

I'd suggest 2 HR-05-SLI's. They will fit. I think any other typical tower heatsinks won't fit. My buddy has the same sli sinks on his 680i with 2 7900gtx's. The one on northbridge is very close to the top video card. Just a few mm clearance. The other is in between the cards.

Your case will need good airflow.
