EVGA 122-CK-NF68-A1 mobo, what HSF will fit?

Hey all,

I'm in the process of building myself a new rig. I went with this mobo...

»www.newegg.com/Product/P ··· 13188013

and was wondering if anyone here has one with a decent HSF attached that clears all the heatpipe stuff on the mobo.

Was thinking of the Zalman...

»www.newegg.com/Product/P ··· 35118223

but it's looking pretty wide. Thinking that I might need to go with one that is more of a tower shape, but that Zalman is pretty nice.

Anyone have the above combo, or the mobo with an another HSF that is nice? I do plan to OC, but nothing too insane.

it would fit but i would look into either one of these instead as the cool better and are quieter

or

i prefer tuniq as its a cleaner look and already comes with a fan and as far as performance on 1-2c separate the 2

Just went the Zalman route and i am very impressed with it.
I opted for this baby..Zalman 9700NT

One week installed and overclocking is going very nicely with this HS. Something to consider IMHO.

you wont have a problem running any socket 775 hsf with the a1.the best bang for your buck is the tuniq M8trix linked to.the 9500 is a decent hsf but it isnt worth the money imho.ive got one on my backup and im not impressed with the mounting mechanism at all.
