Hello all,
Following a disasterous issues with my EVGA 680i board i am shopping for a new one. I have 'settled' on this ... http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/...ProductID=2553

It looks pretty good yet the GIGABYTE GA-N680SLI-DQ6 does not like large coolers. i currently have an Arctic Freezer Pro 7 and was wondering if this would fit. If not do you guys have any suggestions ? Other Motherboards to consider and/or cooling suggestions would all be welcome.
I have trawled the net to the point of seeing heatpipes and thermal solutions in the faces of loved ones and believe me this does not improve their appearance possibly with the exception of one uncle who could probably use a metal pipe insertion

I am planning on going full SLI with my existing Palit 320 GTS yet this too atm is not written in stone.

Many thanks in advance.

Scythe are a great brand also. Edit: maybe not so good if you dont like large coolers.

Also dont bother with SLI.

This should be in Fozziks btw.
