I just bought a EVGA 780i FTW motherboard and I wanted to make sure the TRUE heatsink would fit on it. Also have a q6600 processor. Has anyone else installed the TRUE and can you decide which orientation to put it in or is their only one option? Want to make sure there aren't compatibility problems.

It fits in the standard orientation.
Here's mine with a 60x25mm fan on the NB.

Thanks for the pic thats helpful. I can't really tell which direction is the back of your case. So with the way you have it set up does the air blow through the TRUE into the back of your case and then out? or does it blow to the side of the case?

And yeah I have exactly that setup and works fine. Even enough space for a bigger NB fan.

Thanks for the advice. Looks like I'm going to pick up a True and two fans to try out the push pull air flow method. I'm getting a coolermaster case as well that has two 120mm fans in the back so these 4 fans should move air from the front to the back pretty efficiently.
