Has anyone here been able to use an aftermarket cooling solution (i.e. not ICE) on an sx38p2-pro? I've found that the holes in the motherboard are quite non-standard in configuration (see this picture). If anyone can help I'd appreciate any suggestions. I can't even mount my cpu waterblock because of this and I don't want to have wasted over $300.00 on these parts.

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.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

here is a rather extreme example of what can be done with aftermarket heatsinks.

personally though I don't think it's worth it, the stock heatsink is pretty amazing. the fans themselves are easy to upgrade and definitely worth replacing with more efficient, quieter and/or more powerful fans.
for example, my 70mm->80mm CPU fan mod: http://www.sudhian.com/index.php?/forums/viewthread/100870/

WOW! That is pretty impressive. I don't care for the front mesh he used though. I realize he was prob going for raw speed at any cost, but it sure takes away from the looks with that mesh.
