Scorpion i think comes with better fan and bracket mounting kit.

Could this fit on a mATX ASUS p5kpl am/ps board?

I've been using the HDT-S1283 for a couple of months and just found this this thread.

CPU Information: Phenom II X4 940 Deneb
* Clock Speed: 1300 (low P state) to 3500 (performance)
* Vcore: 1.1 to 1.325
* Ambient: 24 @ night, 29 daytime (Palm Springs...)
* Idle: 32
* Load: 49
* Comments:

A. I used IC Diamond 7 thermal paste, and have had great results. Probably will remount in a few weeks just to see if I did a good job (used the suggests from benchmark reviews about making lines).
B. I got the fan from the Dark Knight, just called Xigmatek and happened to get a nice guy, just had to ship the original back; my new fan's CFM is 89, original with S1283 is 56, so I think it makes quite a difference.

As happy as I am with the performance, I have to mount the fan facing up, towards the top of the case, which is OK because I have an Antec 900, so it aims towards exhaust, but I would like the choice to install towards back, more powerful ACRyan Blackfire4 fan -- does anyone know of a mod kit that will allow me to mount at a 90 degree angle from how it is supposed to be on an AM2 board? (GA-MA790X-UD4P).

Thanks,

Red Scorpion's fan is worse, but has an LED. It's also nickel plated.
The mounting kit is the same as the regular HDT-S1283

Was thinking of trying a push-pull setup. Anyone have experience with that. What kind of results did you see?
