Asus T3-P5G31 largest CPU cooler

Hi, Just looking at buying an asus T3-P5G31 Barebones system.

Does anyone know what would be the largest cpu cooler that would fit ?

Planning on overclocking a Q6600.

thanks

There isn't a huge amount of room inside I'm using the stock cooler and its really noisey... something like the ACF 7 low profile http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-033-AR&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=1395 should do (note I haven't tested this one specifically but I think theres room*).

These are neat little systems I love the way you can remove a couple of screws and unfold everything out for easy maintenance... but space is tight especially GPU and CPU areas.

* Tho it might be a pain removing the motherboard to fit the backplate for bolt through coolers

Thanks for the reply, i may order the acf 7 to go with the system.

Can you overclock the fsb in the bios ?

thanks

Just for reference the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Low Profile CPU Cooler fits my system fine.
