[aln688]

Hi Aln688, how's it going ?. I had to file between the holes first to get my round file in and then at the inner most hole by about a 1mm at each end to reduce the hole spacing ......

And fitted .......

Add small washers to prevent the spring going in the hole making the clamping forces uneven.

CNB-S1L = 53 degrees : SLF-1 = 44 degrees (on mid fan speed setting CHA FAN2)

Hello there Rob2K, not bad, you? Thanks for the picture, I get the point now. I measured the distance between the holes on the southbridge, it's 53mm. With the S1L at its inner most points being 54.6mm, obviously a light filing on that heatsink will do the trick. I've looked around online and there really aren't any SB heatsinks that will fit this board, it's no surprise people are turning to this option. I have an HR-05 SLI/IFX in my computer parts box, I'm just reluctant to use it as it seems OTT. One item I do wonder about is the RPM on that SLF, does it sound loud? I have a slow speed 80x15mm 2000 RPM fan I could use on my HR-05 SLI/IFX, just toying with the different options, but your board with your SLF and modification looks great. Cheers.
