Default Will CPU fan work with MBoard?
Hey guys,

Will the CoolerMaster Mars fit onto the ASUS Crosshair Mobo? I want to buy it, but I am afraid that the sinks on the mobo will be in the way of the fan. Please help, if you guys can tell me any other good sinks that will fit on that board. Thanks!

They may be compatible, bit I don't think they'd fit. Take a look at this:

And compare to this:

Looks like there may be a clearance issue with the sinks.

Stillhouse is right, that massive copper cooler will block the Mars.
