Anyone have some experience with this?

the xp 120 mounts fine on the ultrad with pipes facing down towards the pci-e slots, just dont go out and buy those stupid tall overpriced corsair stix with loose as timings, they are too tall, all other memory stix fit nicley.

the xp120 is over rated, the xp90 matches it on a dual core/single core amd and I have found solutions as inexpensive as $18 that are just as good if you dont mine modding a bit.

I recently purchased 2 amd x2 stock heatsink fans cuz they cool just as good as the overrated and overpriced solutions that are pushed and peddled like drugs everywhere lol
 
oh im not buying a xp120 its from my old rig...
next cooling setup will be water or chilled water or phase no more of this noisy annoying air for me :p
im ordering an opty and it already comes with a good heatpipe cooler anyway i think?
ill test both and see if theres any diff
 
im just waiting for a confirmation that this old pos system is sold and the opty 165 + dfi ultra d and ocz ddr500 2gig kit is on its way via express shipping YA BABY :D

it blocks the first pci-e slot but who uses it anyway?
i think its the pci-e 4x slot, your vido card will fit fine.
