XP-120 in a Antec Sonata ON a Abit IS7? Possible?

[JvD]

Im planning on buying a XP-120 but am worried that it wount fit. I have a Antec Sonata and a Abit IS7. As you might know, the socket on IS7b is very close to the edge on the MB (se here: http://www.abit-usa.com/images/products/IS7_lg.jpg) AND the PSU on Sonata is close to the MBs upper end. SO, do ANY of you guys have this setup or any insight in this little problem. Is it possible?

Well, I have a Sonata and an IS7 with a Zalman CNPS7000A and it fits without a problem, but the XP-120 is a whole nother beast but according to Thermalright's compatability list, you should be fine.

Yes, its OK with the motherboard, that i know. BUT does it fit the case, is the PSU in its way?

Yes it does get in the way.

You found a XP-120 compatablity list? Where?

I'd also like to know where I can find such a list.

Anyone using the XP-120 on an Epox 8KDA+ or 8KDA3J?

I really would like to buy this heatsink since it seems to be easy to install (provided there is enough space), is lightweight and should be fairly quiet. But I'd hate to order a $50 heatsink and have it not fit properly.

Here you GO.
Burner127, in what way? I assume you are the "burner" from asusboards who wrote on this topic, right? In that case, dont you have the Asus P4C800E Deluxe? If so, are you sure its the same for IS7? WHat is the distance from socket upper edge to the PSU? Do you have any pictures? How did it abstruct?
