I am planning to get a asus p5e (http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=669220) and need a lill help with coolers that fit.

I have my eye on either of these coolers Noctua NH-U12P (http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=768118) or a Thermalright Ultra-120 eXtreme (http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=676579).

Can anyone tell me if either of these coolers will fit on this board.

Also if anyone has a combination of either cooler and mobo installed and possible, could you post a pic for me to check the fit.

Regards

554.

I am a bit curious as well. I have a P5E and currently use an arctic cooling freezer 7 which was a tight fit. I was looking to upgrade to another cooler but I don't know what will fit.

Yeah, the coolers aint cheap, even worse if you cant use it after all that.

I have a gut feelign it will JUST fit hehe, but only just, but would like to know for sure.

Also, does it cover any of the ram slots, as my ram is some of the high sink finned corsair stuff, and that may cause issues as well
