JamieS Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 So does the Thermalright XP-120 fit with a video card in the first PCI-E slot of the SLI-DR or Ultra-D? This photo leads me to belive it does. http://photobucket.com/albums/y245/IShb3w/...current=025.jpg Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragun Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 I'm not sure how big the difference is between the XP-120 and XP-90 but the XP-90 can fit (just barely) with a ATI Radeon X800XL also, i have the heat pipes on the other side (to the rear of that photo) once i take it out again for cleaning/etc , i will rearrange it so that it hangs over my ram Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewZorn Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 i have seen pictures of it fitting. it has to be turned a certain way so it will not cover the mem slots, but yeah. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you might find it much easier to install your RAM before you mount the XP-120. Also be sure to get a fairly high CFM fan, as you need to cool the heatsink, and you'll cool (to some degree) the RAM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiroh Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 If the big tornado can fit on mine I'm sure the XP-120 will fit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaFrOuT Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 i would say get the XP-90 for more clearence and easier installation Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewZorn Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 with my 7700cu i had to install the memory first, but i cannot rely on it to cool the memory. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharp Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Hello, Does the XP-120 cover both memory modules, in the orange slots? Active memory cooling Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundx98 Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 sure the XP-120 fits. The sink covrs the 1st orange slot so it's a little tricky getting it with the XP-120 mounted the 1st time. Becomes much easier with experience PLenty of room (an inch) between the pipes and the card. XP-90 is almost as good but I like the 120 120 installed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to mount it the other way, but I didn't want to fight with it every time I went to change the RAM. Would have been a big pain during setup, I suppose now that everything is running smooth I won't be fiddling with the RAM too often though. If you see a big temp advantage, let us know. It would be worth switching it around for that. EDIT: Sharp lookin' rig there Soundx98! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted July 31, 2005 Posted July 31, 2005 Fits with room to spare. Getting memory in and out is easy enough to do. No impact on the video card for me.X800XL has plenty of room. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
