Previous Reviewers Build - Please note
Having purchased the previous reviewers build. The Artic Freeezer Cooler Pro 7 will not fit exactly on that asus motherboard as it pushes one bank of Memory a little bit.
Way to solve it - dremmel a bit of the plastic off the corner of the fan, you get a tight fit but nothing is being pushed.
Otherwise choose a smaller cooler or use the stock one that comes with the Processor.
Processor on the other hand in blindingly quick. Well worth it bang for buck!!!
Heatsink
Just a quick comment for those finding problems with memory and heatsinks. I use a Coolermaster V8 this as well as providing superb aircooling also allows you to use memory with high heatsinks without moding the cooler heatsink.
