zalman 7700 and DFI Ultra D

[dc_519]

Does any have the above combo? If so is there any issues with fitting it in? Like ram has to be in the yellow slots or anything?

thanks

here is the mb compatibility list:

I've seen alot of folks using them on the DFI so I don't think there are any issues.

thanks for the link...but I think I have decided to get the XP-90 instead with a either a panflo or nexus 92mm fan

You will like the XP90 better, the Zalman is a great HS too but with the XP90 you get the same if not better performance with your choice of fans, plus it will work with any mb ;)

I have a 7700 currently fitted my my Ultra D. It almost touches my video card and it sits over the 1st orange ram slot. But it does fit.

I have that combo and love it. The heatsink sits just over the first stick of ram. I have OCZ enhanced latency gold series with the gold heatspreaders and it fits fine. I also love this heatsink because it helps keep the ram and chipset cool. No, you can't choose your own fan, but this one works awesome anyway. I have a radeon x800xl and it's nowhere near touching the heatsink.

The only issue I can think of is that my ram was already installed when I put the heatsink on. I don't know if you can remove or install the first stick with the heatsink on, so put your memory in first.
