Scythe Ninja on P35C-DS3R

I just wondered if anyone know what the cythe Ninja is like on the P35C-DS3R please?

Also, would the Crucial Ballistix Tracer RAM get in the way at all? My current memory gets in the way because it's slightly taller than usual... is the Crucial RAM normal size?

Thanks,
Craig,

I have the Scythe Ninja Plus on my Gigabyte P35 DQ6, which has a Northbridge heatsink design going nearly all round the cpu socket. The ninja fits fine on this mb.

From pictures I`ve seen of the P35-DSR3 it has a smaller heatsink desgin, so it shouldnt be a problem at all getting the ninja on to it.

Is that with the fan sitting above the RAM blowing air out the back of the case?

It's this on with the single big block for the chipset: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-086-GI

Yes with a 120mm fan above the ram blowing towards the back of the case. I have 2 GB Crucial Ballistix PC8500 C5 (2x1 GB) running in dual channel and the fan or cooler does not get in the way.

Nice, I'm also getting the Crucial Ballistix (6400).

Thanks for your help,
