Afternoon all 
The situation
I'm starting to become more and more annoyed with the northbridge on my DFI NF4 - Ultra-D. So it's time to do something about it.
Originally I was going to cut up a spare Freezer 64, but there is no way that will fit as the Scythe Ninja is way too big and stops it from fitting.
The problem
I've seen pics of the HR-05 installed so the pipes bend up and down, and in terms of it fitting the the HR-05 will fit with the pipes bent down. However, this will mean that it sits in an area where the VF900 (on an X1900XT-X) is dumping it's hot air. So I'd prefer it bending up if possible.
The question
Does any one know if it's possible to have the HR-05 SLI point upwards on an NF4 board with a scythe ninja (or similar heatsink).
Or is my up/down conundrum not worth bothering about??
Cheers
Dan
