Wait wait wait by looking at those pictures it seems there is no way to install my hr-05?? Or would I have to buy the hr-05 ifx sli? and I'm hearing some terrible things for this board on the qx6700 I'm scared

I just remounted my TRUE so it now goes bottom to top in my Antec 900 and It dropped my CPU temps by 6*c and my northbridge temp by about 4*c (must have been a dead spot)!!!

Will get before and after pics once Imageshack stops being crap... :P
