Just received my new Gigabyte GA-H61N motherboard for my 35w Pentium G620T. The Scythe Mugen I'd planned to use doesn't fit - not enough clearance around the CPU no matter what way I turn it. Lots of little caps in the way. Also I'm really not too keen on the VTMS mounting kit that came from scythe to be honest - it is a bit flimsy/wobbly.
I'm a silence obsessive so fanless is what I want. i.e. the intel one isn't bad but I can still hear it.
Anyone got experience of aftermarket 1155 coolers likely to fit in cramped (widthwise round the base) conditions? I'm quite happy to go fairly tall on the heatsink as it is being fitted into an old shuttle case with the CD/hard drive bay removed.
