Usaybis Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Just got finished installing a Thermaltake Extreme Spirit II to my 680i A1 motherboard. As in the picture above I decided to face the Spirit so that it was blowing towards the I/O plate like my 9700 already was. As you can see from the picture above the two appear to just barely touch. I'm wondering if this is a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 as long as the Tt ES II isn't being tipped over, losing contact on one side of the NB die, it's not a problem... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 However, you might want to think about rotating that TT thing by 90 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guticb Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 It shouldn't be an issue. Oh, by the way, that's not a CNPS9700NT. It's a 9700LED. The NT's are black, the LEDs are orange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwinC Posted February 9, 2008 Posted February 9, 2008 I say rotate the cooler, so in time it will not make any harmonic noise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
