I need a heatsink and fan unit for my BH6 that will take away only one dimm slot AT THE MOST.(when i say this i dont want to do any facing sanding or cutting to achieve this either) I know alpha and globalwin are the best but it appears they will take away many from one to two slots. isnt the alpha pep66 made for slockets? if so how many slots will it take on my bh6? any suggestions are welcomed.

I've got the alpha pal6035 and it dosen't take any away... I don't know who told you that they would.

There's over an inch of room between my golden orb and the closest dimm slot on my BH6.

If someone here doesn't give you a specific recommendation for a HSF that you can actually buy somewhere now, then:

For a Globalwin or Alpha, which are big, pick a HSF you can actually buy somewhere currently, look up the manufacturer's specs, then get out the ol' yardstick and measure, leaving a margin for error.

If in doubt, go for the gorb. :)

P.S.
Bigger is really better - I ought to know. :D

The BH6 is one of the more roomy boards,I have a C550 with a Global win FDP32. Not blocking any memory slots. I have also used my Alpha in there with no problem as well.
