How comfortable would you guys/girls feel about your heatsink touching 3 capacitors and also the power connector?
As you can see from the 4 photos, it's a very tight fit. There is not really much pressure against the capacitors nor the power connector but I'm still feeling a little uncomfortable. I haven't yet powered up the board as I was just getting it prepared until a couple of other parts I've been waiting for arrive so I can start my next project.
I do have other coolers which are smaller but I really wanted to use this Thermaltake Volcano 7 as it has a blue heatsink and will look nice considering the ram heatsinks, motherboard and graphics card are all blue.
Board is a 440BX Gigabyte GA-6BX7+. Cpu is a pin modded P3 1.4Ghz Tully.
