    I use the Phobya Xtreme 200mm Radiator and it is "bolt on", you need to find new screws sins the stock fan is 38mm thick or buy 2xPhobya 180mm fans that are 25mm.

    Any Sandy Bridge m-ITX coming? Any news?

    I have a realy hard time to think that you can't even change the multipel on a H67 if you have a "K" cpu. So i think/hope that is BS, or that Asus or Gigabyte fix it on the "Gigabyte H67N-USB3" and "Asus P8H67-I Deluxe"
