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

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.
 
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?
