Some help - CPU cooler
I'm planning to upgrade my motherboard and CPU to a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R (rev 1.1) and Intel Core2Quad Q9550 respectively, in the next few days.
I am planning to buy a Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme CPU cooler because the stock Intel cooler just doesn't cut it in our Indian summers. I'm hearing very good things about this particular CPU cooler, and need to know whether it will fit on the motherboard.
I know this is probably nothing to do with the trend of this board, except that I do run Windows 7 and plan to do so for the conceivable future (or until the next version of Windows arrives, whichever is earlier).
If any of you people here are running this combo or know someone who does, could you please let me know what the experience has been like?
Quick replies greatly appreciated, as I need to get the payment part done tomorrow, so I can have the parts in hand for the weekend.
Mods, please move this thread to the appropriate forum if necessary.
Thanks in advance,
NPP
