Gaming / OC motherboards

After spending 3 hours today installing my new Q9450 CPU and cooler I don't quite understand why companies like Asus and Zalman who make products gears for the gamers and overclockers make stuff that isn't compatible with most 3rd party hardware products unless you do some serious modifications to make it all fit together! Asus has to be the the worse for it now I think..

I have P5N-T Deluxe mobo which is an OC mobo but it has so many components on it that are in the way for installing new hardware it's simply crazy to think they can market the mobo as a gamer board!?

Take this point in hand... See my mod and you will know what I mean!

 nice modding. i think asus leans on the side of over-doing cooling on their gaming and OC boards assuming that the people buying them would rather have more things they can potientally take off then not have them at all.

only thing i can think of...
