Hi there,

I've got this motherboard:
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overview.aspx?ProductID=2470

and this heatsink:
http://www.quietpc.com/gb-en-gbp/products/amdcooling/ninjaplus

and the heatsink, when placed on the motherboard, is pushing out those capacitors on the top. The big heatpipes on the heat sink are the problem. I don't think I should have the heatpipes touching the capacitors anyway, because the pipes should get quite hot.

Is there anything I can do about this, or should I just return the heatsink? Can someone recommend a better heatsink for this motherboard?

I'm thinking of this Zalman one:

Hope someone can help,

Thanks
