Question about the Asus Rampage Motherboard

[Shadak]

This motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131284

I tried to use this fan: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&DEPA=0&Description=zalman+9500

The way the fan clip was you could not clamp it in because of the heatsinks around the processor area.

Is there anyone that has this board that can suggest a good cooler that fits? I am looking to overclock to around 4.0 ghz nothing over that...Have the E8400 CPU.

Thanks for your help.

Check out this thread...post #19 shows an Infinity installed.

It doesn't however, actually show a fan installed, but the poster states that it works, so I'm going with the notion that he means with a fan, as well.

I don't see anything in post #18, but in post #19 I see a Scythe Inifinity

the Thermalright Ultra-120 fits in either orientation with plenty of room, so the Ultra-120 Extreme should fit as well.

Yep, you're right, it is post #19 and it is the Infinity. The question (by our very own Suuuuperrrr Nade) was about the Ultra and it was quoted in the response and I just went along for the ride, thinking it was an Ultra.

Thanks for catching that...I'll go back and edit my post.
