A7N8X and SLK-900 HS

[Wintermute76]

I"m getting an A7N8x mobo and I was looking at the Thermalright SLK-900 4-bolt heatsink to put on it, it looks like the Asus has the 4 mounting holes, but all the pics "Ive seen so far are too small for me to tell. Does it have the 4 mounting holes?

I was just about to say that. You have to bend some capacitors 2-3mm I believe. Not worth it to me.

You can either bend the cap on your mobo or take a dremel to the SLK900 and make clearance by grinding away the offending part.😉
