Water cooling the Asus Maximus SE X38

[Talonman]

I have serious doubts on the accuracy of their compatibility list. I see the GA-X38-DQ6 is also listed and there's no way you can fit the HR-09 on the MOSFETs as the base is too wide, nor can you fit the HR-05 (either version) on the SB unless they provide a new retaining clip as the hole separation is shorter than any of the 3 clips they previously supplied.

Thanks for the info I think .....

That dosen't sound good...

I just sent their support a note:

I was looking for compatibility verification on Maximus SE X38 mosfet cooler.

On the Thermalright web page it is listed that they will fit ASUS X38 mobo's like the Maximus SE.

http://www.thermalright.com/product_default.htm

Select HR-09 under MOSFET COOLER on top left of screen, then scroll down under ASUS and select X38.

We see out Maximus is listed with this recommendation:
Maximus Formula: I/O Side mosfet HR-09 U TYPE2, Up Side mosfet HR-09 S TYPE2.

I hope that is good info.

I have just ordered:
(1) Thermalright HR-09S Mosfet Cooler - Slant Type
(1) Thermalright HR-09U Mosfet Cooler - Upright Type

After I clicked 'buy' I found this....

Looks like 1 dude ordered these and 1 would not fit correctly?

Do you guys know for a fact that they will fit on the ASUS X38 Maximus SE?


I will post how they respond.
