Thanks for that. Good to know that the supplied clips are fine, been considering trying 140mm fans on my super mega.

no problem, i read a review of the megahalems and was told to buy another set of clips for a push pull config, but it turned out that you get 4 clips with the megahalems anyway

so ive got a spare set if you need them.

just noticed your from NI too

Yep, up near the north coast. Thanks for the offer mate, but thankfully i received four clips with the super mega as well.

Did you have to change the chipset cooler back to the OEM one due to the cooler?

Lovely, lovely, build! :cool:

Yea you get two coolers with the board. A small shallow one and a larger one with fins and a fan. I took the fan off before I fitted te larger cooler as I wanted to keep noise to a minimum but the CPU cooler fouled on the large cooler so I had to revert back to the shallow one

Really jealous of your mobo

Was gonna get the same one, but settled for something lesser in the end.
