Has anyone tried to fit one of the newer taller sinks like the:

Thermalright True Spirit 140
Archon rev A
Silver Arrow SB-E

All of the heat skins above are labeled as 170mm height, and I don't know if they will fit in the 500R

Thank you redface.gif

They should fit without issue. The door fan is in the extrusion in the door. Clearance shouldn't be an issue.

Anyone know if a Mini-ITX motherboard will fit in here? (mounting holes wise) I'm pretty sure it will since I thought mini-itx just uses the first four mATX holes, but I'm not positive.
