How far above a graphics does the HR-03 passive cooler go? I'm thinking about getting one, but I am not sure if it will fit because I have a HR-05 on the northbridge. So if anyone could tell me so I could measure this out I'd greatly appreciate it!
I doubt it would fit. I just eye measured how close my HR-03 gets to the mobo and it would barely clear the stock NB cooler on my bad axe 2, which is prolly about 2 inches tall, and I'm sure the HR-05 is is quite a bit taller.
DS3 has a different layout - I actually have a PCI-e X1 slot above the PCI-e X16 slot so the NB is further up. The HR-05 is taller, but it's also thinner than stock. I would say, between the back of the graphics card and HR-05 heatsink I might have about 2 inches, not exactly sure - just eyeballing. I'll get an exact measurement later if needed.
