Alpha PEP66 on a CUSL2????????

[Syborg1211]

would an alpha pep66 fit on the cusl2? or do i have to get a new heatsink and fan?

 

[overdoze]

it won't fit. I tried. Had to buy the the alpha PAL one to get it fit. Even GORB does not fit unless you yank it in place

 

[masterskartrg]

it does fit im using it right now i think it more depends on the case

 

[han888]

yup, it's can not fit! it's happen too me

 

[Syborg1211]

so wait, i am getting mixed answers here. will it fit on the board if my case does not block it?

 

[Syborg1211]

anyone?

 

[Syborg1211]

bump

 

[masterskartrg]

again yes it does fit im using it. if your case have enough room it will. at first i thought it didnt fit but it fits perfectly in my case all i had to do was switch the fan the opposite way on my pep66

gorb fits too, but install slowly and carefully. i moved the capacitors very slightly and carefully out of the way. but the Golden Orb does fit as well.

The Q500 is a pretty hefty case, so if you have a Mid-Tower you're probably SOL..

Anybody get it to work in a mid? If so, is it mounted "properly"?

Wont work with an Enlight 7237 yep the power supply is in the way, I removed the fan just to check and it does fit the board a little tight but will work it just needs the upper clearance too...

my pep66 fits on my CUSL2 and aopen hx-08 full tower, i cut the metal away in the middle of the case below the powqer supply, then i had to wedge something under the power supply too lift it as well, now the fan on the alpha blows directly into the power supply, i think it's ok, i've hit 1Ghz @ 1.75v with my P3-700, is that ok?
