Ok awesome - changed to a Akasa AK-183-L2B Ultra Quiet 120mm Fan - 3 pin (FG-024-AK) if you know thats better.

Not sure about the cooler tho yet - lets hope it fits!

Sweet.

The new DFI RD580 & Abit RD580 is up for pre-order. Might be a better alternative to the Asus one, which a lot of users have had problems with(see the massive thread in mobo section). The DFI one is rated quite highly. It's a shame OcUK have jacked the price up from £152 (this morning) to £176 (this evening).

Yeah I would love to go DFI but I need the pc before bank holiday and £176 for a mother board is smoking crack territory!
