I have a coolermaster praetorian 730, which isn't a very wide case, and I'm thinking of upgrading to a q6600 spec but keeping the case. I have one of these at the moment (125mm tall) and I reckon I can only get about a 135mm cooler in there at the most due to the sliding motherboard tray, which leaves me juuust out of range of the tuniq tower and that huge thermalright one, so I don't really need a proper low profile cooler, just one that will be atiny bit smaller than 14cm.
I'd prefer to get one without push pins, so I was leaning towards buying the Thermalright si-128, but I'm planning on buying a p5q-e board which has heatsinks all round the cpu socket as well so that's another problem :/
If anyone who has that board or case can chime in that would be fantastic, bonus points if it fits an am2 socket as well as a 775 socket so I can put it in my current pc too
