DFI Lanparty UT nF4 Ultra D + XP-120!?

Kurant · 09-26-05, 10:17 AM

Does the XP-120 fit the board?

Just looking at a picture it looks like it might block the 4th RAM slot, and possibly the PCI-e slot?

Thanks for any help!

Yes it fits, and it fits very well. I'm ordering my DFI Ultra-D today and i can tell if you for sure if it does. I know my friend Rattle has the same board with a XP-120 and it appears to work great.

Yep it fits fine. memory modules are just accesable.

Can someone confirm that this really works? I was about to buy one but on Thermalright's own homepage they say that it will block the first PCI-e slot...

IT FITS! IT FITS.. listen to me, i am using one right now.. it fits

just so you know it does block a 8x pci-e port (this is not even supported yet though with *ANYTHING* so it doesnt matter as of right now)

The only time it doesn't fit is if you remove the IHS.
The heatpipe hits the FET heatsink. You have to bend the heatsink in a bit...

(This is from my experience with the mobo and HS..)

i cant image the si-120 being THAT much better. and even then there are better choices like the ninja...

It fits like a charm. it will hang over 2 of the ram dimms. with some ram the heatspreaders are too tall to shimmy under it after the HSF is in place, and you cant mount it with ram in the slot. I had to remove my heatspreaders on my mushkin redline, not like that stuff does anything anyway.

Stoanhart · 10-12-05, 05:24 PM

It works, i'm running it now.

it does block the top PCIe slot, so if you ever need it in the future, you are SOL. but I don't think I will, so no issue for me.

I got it in just fine with the mushkin redline with the new heatspreaders in just fine. It was just really difficult :>
