With a week to go before I order a Q6600, I am considering the tuniq tower as a decent cooler.

Problem is I first decided on the Gigabyte P35 DS4 until I discovered that the Tuniq Tower does not fit without allowing the heat sink fins on NB and HS to touch and also modding the FAN position within the tuniq.

I am now considering the Gigabyte P35 DS3P which appears to have a smaller NB heatsink. However I have searched for conclusive evidence that the tuniq fits on this board without having to do anythin that aint in the manual :) but could not find anything.....

So is anybody currently using this set up to confirm the tuniq and P35 DS3P fits together? if so any screenies I can look at would be great?

(Please dont recommend an Asus board instead as I have already bought an 8800 ultra and need more than 2 sata ports ;) and I am preferring the P35 chipset than a 680 or other)

Failing that does any one know of a very good HSF for a Q6600 that will fit onto the DS4?? (Without spending a fortune ie 120 extreme + fan)

Hi Eggy
i will also be buying the same setup as you. a Gigabyte P35 DS3P + a Tuniq Tower and i would like to know the same . come on guys will the two of them fit together ok ?
 
Im running the P35-DS3P combined with the ninja rev B cooler, and it just about fits. Edge of the fan sits a mm or 2 above the ram . Would require removing the fan from the cooler if removing/installing the memory.

I think the TT should fit alright on the Gigabyte GA P35 DS3P as if you look Here at Post 7, he seems to have a TT on the P35 DS3P. :)
