Striker-compatible HSFs

[DCarez]

Hi,

I have a new in box Scythe Ninja Plus Rev A HSF, and I wanted to get the Striker for my C2D build, but looking at those heatpipes I'm not sure. So:

1) Is the Striker compatible with the Ninja Plus w/ backplate or
2) Is the Striker compatible with the Scythe Infinity?
3) Let's make a list of HSFs that actually do fit in that squarish area.

I have mine running with Tuniq 120 and fits just about right!

Infinity works. Noctua does not.

The Noctua NH-U9 is installed on my Striker. It's a little tricky getting the fan retainers on the lower half of the fan, but it's running just fine!
