So I'm looking at this cooler right now for AM2 platform, and of what I have been able to see from reviews, it can only be installed facing one way, depending how the stock rm is lined up. Which in my case would mean that the sink would be facing up toward the psu. If this is right, and it does look that way, could anyone recommend another nice cooler for that I could actually install so that faces the case fan in the back. I'm looking for something silent to replace the AMD stock cooler.
Another thing about these monster heatsinks like that Ultra 120 Extereme, I'm a little freaked out about their size. Is anyone using one in Antec Solo/P160? How's the fit? Solo isn't exactly the most roomy case, so I'm a little worried.
Which brings me to my last question. I'm not looking to overclock at all (x2 5600+ doesn't even overclock very well) so I would of course be fine with something smaller as well, no real need to get a monster cooler. Something that is more effective than stock cooler, silent and can be faced either way.
Thanks in advance.
