The Scythe Infinity cooler sits from about 1/3rds across the NB, near the upper edge of the board, covering the "Asus P5B-E Plus" markings and right over the mosfets on the back of the board. I have the vantec steath almost sitting on the first RAM module. It seems to work well, the top of the Scythe is cool to the touch anyway. |

What about the hr-05 SLI? that bends out of the way, and apart from the shape of the pipes, I think its pretty much the same.

If your jacking up the fsb yep, but see how far you get on the stock voltage first on the northbridge till you start increasing it.
Oh and make sure you've got some cooling on it. |
