I looked through the forums but couldn't find an exact answer, and I've spent a day on this already.

My brother has an Evga 680i rev A1 in an Antec 900 case. I am looking for a good CPU heatsink fan/combo. The Turiq won't fit the case from what I have read, but the Zalman 9500 or 9700 might if the capacitor on the backside of the motherboard is not in the way.

Does the A1 revision fix the capacitor issue? I was going to look at the Evga forums but it looks like you have to be registered to search. I welcome any other suggestions. Some of the less expensive fan/heatsinks with the plastic mounting clips have issues from what I have read.
 
The Tuniq Tower WILL fit on an EVGA 680SLI A1 board in an Antec 900. It is a VERY tight fit, but I had one on my E6600 before I upgraded to quad and went water in my current Lian Li case. I'm sorry I don't have any pictures, but I know from first-hand personal experience that it will work.
