Ok guys, I've got a problem.

I have an EP45-UD3P that I was planning on putting a Tuniq Tower 120 on and it won't fit. Between caps and surrounding heat pipe it won't fit no matter the rotation.

I need to know what's the best HSF that is KNOWN to fit/match the EP45-UD3P and is available locally (Fry's).

I've got to get this mounted today and I'm running into roadblocks.

I know Fry's has the Zalman 9500's and 9700's - maybe one or two others I'm not sure. I'll be looking on the Fry's online HSF's.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Will start listing possible options below.

Option 1

Option 2

Has to be locally available. Too late to order online.

Frys doesn't have any nice heatsinks, but I guess if I had to pick one I'd go with the CM Hyper 212.

Yup, Keep fingers crossed it's decent. I'll have to set it up with push-pull fans.

Thanks guys!

the vendetta II will fit.
i have the t version of this board, so no layout differences besides having ddr3, and my vendetta 2 works great and can use a 38mm h1011 on it with all the ram slots filled without problem

if my vendetta fits fine the xiggy DK should work fine

I have the Hyper212 (it was on my E8400 before I got my Q9550) and when overclocked to 4GHz, it idled at 33C (I had stuck sensors, it didn't go lower! hah!) and loaded with OCCT at around 68C.

Good luck -- it's a great cooler.

Hyper 212 is great, put one in a friend's computer and it keeps it at very acceptable temps.
