Has anyone had trouble installing Orb HSF such as Golden, Chrome, or Super orbs on the abit style motherboards such as Iwill, etc...

Here is a picture

this is the iwill motherboard but the abit is the same.... the pieces right below the socket are in the way of a rounded heatsink fan.. has anyone else noticed this or found a way around it?

I wasn't aware of this until looking closer.. any suggestions would be appreciated

My board has the same thing, and I have an orb. I didn't think I was going to be able to get it on, but it just clears them. You may touch them as you try to get the clip under but it will fit.
