    So I want to get a low profile heatsink to use instead. I am looking at the Enzotech CNB-S1L:

    Does anybody know if it will fit on the ICH9R, and if it does, will it allow for a second video card, or is it still too tall?
    I use 2 3870X2s on Maximus Formula currently, you got plenty of room for that heatsink...or get the one with the little fan on it for a lil more cooling.

    Thats the heatsink I use on the ICH9 SB currently.

    Sweet thanks for the confirmation! I'd rather have surface area over a tiny noisy fan though If temps are too hot, I will jerry rig an angled 80mm fan or something.
