Low-Profile 775 HSF?

[obsidian_mh]

I just got a Silverstone ML02 enclosure. It's fantastic to look at, but I'm trying to find some components for the inside. Primarily, a Socket 775 heatsink/fan.

Case is pretty much 1U-thin, so there's not much clearance. Cables are also tight, so most of the Zalman coolers are out. Any suggestions?

Anyone?

... That's a MoDT case. Mobile on Desktop. See how low you can undervolt a E2***, that'll be as close as you can get. Then throw on some power management software.

As far as coolers go, you're going to either have to get one big piece of aluminium, or hope those laptop sized coolers (like SS's own NT07) will cut it for a E2***.

I'm aware it's a MoDT case, one of the reasons I got it. It's a beautiful case.

I was just hoping to be able to fit my Intel board in. Unfortunately, I can't find a Socket 775 cooler that will fit and do a half-decent job quietly. I guess I'm going to transfer my AM2 board in isntead.

I found this Dynatron cooler for the AM2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835114039

what about the Zalman CNPS8000? 62.5mm tall which might just fit as the case is 82mm. will be tight though!

You've probably already sourced a suitable HSF by now but thought I'd throw in some suggestions just incase anyone else has the same problem.

Take a look at this Bit-Tech review as it covers three very low profile HSF's. I myself have the Gelid Slim Silence 775 on a Zotac 9300-ITX Wifi and it comes to about the same height as the factory fitted northbridge heatsink, so very low profile indeed!

Also the ZEROtherm ATOM 30H is worth considering as it looks like it should quite easily keep 65W CPU's cool, and with a total height of 30mm its only 2mm taller than the Gelid Slim Silence, though sadly I can't find any reviews on it yet.

Hope this helps someone out
