• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

I bought a sabertooth x79 motherboard:

and a:

http://www.amazon.com/Noctua-Heatpi...8&qid=1396112018&sr=8-1&keywords=noctua+dh-14

but it turns out that its not compatible out of the box ( I was suggested to get this combo on this forum so didn't do as much research as I should have).

I found the mounting kit here that is required:

but was wondering if this is the type of thing a company like frys.com stocks so I don't have to order and wait to build my PC?

AFAIK, no. There's no universal mounting bracket for HSF.
