P965-S Northbridge Cooling Help

[ServerKing]

I have DFI p965-S board with a Scyth Ninja rev 2 big ass cooler on it which basically covers the northbridge up. Does anyone have suggestion on more cooling solutions? I have the Ninja with a Silentx 120mm and 2 scyth ninjay 120mm in the case. Case is centurion 531

Looks like they are having a bit of a struggle tho, I was going to mention the H-05 /shrug. maybe not.

I didnt read the whole thread but from my experience, the HR05 is not a good idea for this board....Since it doesnt have mounting holes for the NB, youll have to use the clips supplied by Thermalright and it just doesnt have enough tension to make it work effectively.... After a week, I ended up taking out the HR05 and putting the stock HS back with AS5 and my temp actually got better..... Just stick a fan so there's airflow on the hs and it should work better than any aftermarket cooler....

The HR05 is a good cooler but just not for this board....
