that zalman looks a very snug fit in your htpc

you dont know the half of it

i just had a closer look at that pic and did you have to file down the top fins to get it to fit ?

ok, so maybe you do know the half of it
most blood Ive ever lost to a build.

Anyone else noticed the machine guns in the room? BB? Real? Are you a terrorist?

Nice setups man

haha, SL9 + TM AUG airsoft rifles.
Cheers.

i used to have one of those zalman 9500's on my x2 4400 and i got a nice set of about five parallel cuts fitting it also those things are sharp

yeah they are - had used the more expensive Zalmans before and knew it wouldnt be impossible to get them down to size, so at £13 it seemed like a winner. After 2 hours of wearing them down and two fingers and my thumb on my left hand and three fingers on my right hand in bandages it would finally fit.

This one is quite small lol. Compared to the Megahelems its a baby

 

[BIGBC]

Yeah its just like any other PSU in its price bracket really. 24, 4 and 8 pin are all fixed.

Cheers.
