Will this CPU cooler fit on this Motherboard???

I'm worried it won't fit around the heat pipe on the motherboard. Anyone else running this same setup without any dramas?

Also you happy with the temps?

And can the heatsink be mounted both ways , vertical & horizontal?

i don't think you'll have any probs with it (mobo/hsf/hp) but you might have a problem if your case had a side exhaust fan.. since this thing is pretty tall you might have a problem with the intake cone of the side exhaust fan

No I don't have a side vent on my case so it should be fine.

What about the mounting position of the heatsink. I'd like to mount it vertically so the fan will blow the same direction as the rear exhaust fan, will this be possible?
