I've recently tried a Ninja Rev.B on my P5B-E and it does in fact fit, but the capacitors under the mount plate touches heavily and I think its causing the cooler to tilt a little and not have a proper contact (I was getting around 42 degrees C idle, which isn't high but compared to testing on my stock intel fan which had 44 degrees C idle, only 2 degrees drop on a such massive cooler meant something was definitely wrong)

Now my question is will the Infinity fit on the P5B-E, since it uses a different mounting technique, I've looked on their site and the clips looks like it won't touch the capacitors. Does anyone have the infinity and P5B-E combo, and what temps are you getting compared to ambient/

Or maybe few suggestions on alternative coolers that will definitely fit on the P5B-E.

Thanks in advance.
