Is there a htpc that'll accommodate this heatsink w/o a modification?

I have a microATX w/ this heatsink in a rocketfish that is about 8.25" wide. I can't seem to find any decently priced htpc or desktop cases that'll accomodate this. Only a 5u server chassis will hold it, but I don't really want to go that route.

Ummm... huh? I have an antec twelve hundred and it will accomodate it just fine. Just remember to get the proper bracket to attach it.

After I walked away, I realized what I wrote. I forgot that the PSU sits over the cpu, so there's no way to fit the heatsink in a sff.

NEVERMIND! :rofl:

These will even fit a TRUE if you mount it so that it exhausts out the sides instead of the back
