Hello,

I have a Mugen2 cooler and I'm about to purchase a MSI 790FX-GD70 mobo. What does concerne me is the MOSFET heat sink. That seems to be a wee bit too high. I would be greatly obliged if someone could confirm whether the Mugen 2 is compatible with the GD70. One more question please, for any AM3 mobo I've got to use the very same screws, right? Could you please recommend a bit easier way to mount the HSF on the CPU socket cos' placing the mobo onto the HSF upside down is a bit complicated and tightening the screws that way is quite difficult. Not to mention the fact that after placing the mobo onto the bottom of the HSF it can slip easily cos' of the thermal compound and that makes the entire procedure even more difficult. :S

All your answers are greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
