Cooling Advice

[alanjw]

I was thinking of purchasing an offer on Overclockers:

Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping (SLBEJ) 2.66Ghz @ 4.00GHz......

The only problem is with the fan, Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 CPU Cooler

(Socket LGA1366). I am fairly sure it will not fit into my case. The external

width of the case 18.5 cm. (internal measurement some what less)

I was looking at the Corsair H50 High-Performance CPU Watercooler (Socket

LGA775/1366) but this is not the correct socket number.

Can any one advise on a suitable cooling system within a similar price region

of £60.(or below) that will fit?

Eh??? the i7 is socket 1366, the H50 supports socket 775 & 1366, so this will plug straight into the board,

Edit- I mean you will probably have to use the back plate to fit it to the motherboard
