Owners of Gigabyte P35-DS3P or Abit IP35 Pro - any heatsink fitting issues?

[darkshadow1]

Hi everyone, I was wondering if there were any owners of either the Gigabyte DS3P or Abit IP35 Pro boards who had a tuniq tower set up on it.

I'm looking to buy one of those two exact boards (need 2 pci x16 slots, don't want to pay extra for asus deluxe), but just wanted to make sure that a tuniq tower would fit without any bending or cutting or contortions. (for example, the chipset cooling or the small backplate on the gigabye)

Sorry if this should have been posted in cases & cooling, but i figured that this was specific enough to motherboards that I could post here. Thanks!

The original Scythe Ninja fits the P35-DS3P ok. It' gets a little close to the nb heatsink but it's nothing to worry about.

The Tuniq definitely fits the abit.

Thanks for the responses - I'm going to guess that the Tuniq will fit the Abit better since the tuniq is a bit wider than the ninja (131mm vs. 110mm). Has anyone tried the Tuniq on the Gigabyte board?
