    Best low profile cpu fan and heatsink for mini itx board - needs to be low profile to

    Hello again,

    My next question is as the subject. Which is the quietest (first priority) and the most efficient CPU fan heatsink for a mini ITX build i am doing?

    The motherboard is the ASUS F1A75-I DELUXE and i will be putting it in the Silverstone SUGO SG05.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    I use the Scythe Shuriken in my SG03, low profile, cools well and is very quiet.

    And would that get in the way of any other components? And my cpu has a TDP of 100w (not that it should ever stay there for very long).

    Would that make a difference?

    It really does depend, you need to measure the height you have in your case...

    Here are some pictures of my build, you can see the Scythe Shuriken in the case...
