Howdy folks,

I;m going to be building a m-ITX build soon. Going to be using the Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3, and I hope to use a Shuriken Big. However im having reservations over the Shuriken blocking the PCI slot.

Can anyone put my mind at ease?

Also what do you think would be the most powerful GPU i can use on the Be Quiet 350W sfx power supply?

I was thinking a 5750.

Looks like it'll block it.
Currently I've asked on many different threads to folks who have bought these and all seem to be running them using the stock cooler.
A h50 will aprently work, but only with a washer modification to protect the mobo from h50 backing plate damage, which isn't an idea solution.

I'd love to see a list of compatible coolers and see which would would out the most quiet for a i530 non-OCed build.
