What are some CPU coolers I can use on this board without taking out the motherboard to exchange the back-plate?

A little while ago I just finished installing the Corsair 120mm fan onto the other side of the H50's radiator to have push-pull airflow, I also cleaned off the pre-applied thermal paste and added some MX-2 (pea method). Idle temp seemed the same (about 32C). Almost an hour into Prime95 right now with all fans set on Low, my max temp is at a stable 52C.

After this I'm gonna run prime again with both radiator fans set on high and see what I come up with.
So just for clarification, push-pull, you have both the fans moving the air in the same direction correct? both being exhaust? one pushing through the radiator the other pulling that air out of the chassis?

Small problem ..... Starting last night my usb ports randomly turn off and back on... My keyboard and mouse and secondary sound (phillips stereo with usb connection) all turn off and back on at the same time and my primary sound(5.1) makes the stupid usb disconnect and reconnect sound.... Anyone ran into this????? im guessing its MOBO related as all the ports to it at the same time.... it doesnt loose power ( the keyboard and mouse stay lit up) but stop working....

Help?

Up your voltage a tad more..... You might also need to check you NB temps.... Only thing I can think of.

doesn't seem to help. with bios 1.4 I could run 2800 @ 1.3v. now with bios 1.5 anything over 2400 crashes at post even with 1.3-1.4v applied. I tried downloading the bios over again but same thing.

Thanks. I switched back to bios 1.4 and all is well. I am back to 2800 NB again with no problems as I type this. I think I'll check out one of the beta's

Yeah, exactly. I'm using the Corsair fan to push the air outside, and my antec rear exhaust fan to pull the air out.

I ran Prime95 again with both of these fans on full blast, all other fans at lowest. Max temp was at a stable 42C, I love this cooler.
