Im placing an order in a bit while the seagates are cheap and I thought i might tack some other gubbins on that ive been needing/ wanting. First on the list - an OcUK pen,.. right well my evga 680i is half borked and I never really got decent clocks out of it (fsb) but instead of having the poor ol 680i cs fan whining away I thought i may move to a silent or better performing cs cooler so I decided on the noctua NC-U6 for the northbridge, but damnit removing all those heatpipse (just the one really) is going to leave my southbridge all exposed. What cooler from OcUK can I use on that bearing in mind im of the overclocking mentality, silence (or the lack of jet engines) is important.

So yeah, southbridge cooler for evga 680i from OcUK also bearing in mind I use 2 dual slot gfx cards

All help appreciated
 
Some people use a Evercool VC-RE for cooling the SB on a 680i motherboard..(Ocuk don't stock these,you have to do a search for them)

The picture below is of a EVGA 680i with two Evercool VC-RE fitted (one to NB & one to SB) with SLI 8800gtx cards fitted...

Can anyone suggest as to whether the HR-05 sli would fit well on an evga 680i with 2 dual slot gfx cards and a corsair dominator fan on the ram
 
im also curious if it would fit.. i own an 8800gtx ko acs3 edition - its huge and im concerned that the heatsink wont allow the graphics card to fit back into the pci slot!

failing that does anyone know a vendor of Evercool VC-RE fans?
