PC-Chips A33G
I recently had a similar problem with a PC-Chips A33G (apparently the older non ROHS version) motherboard. The plastic nubs on the outside of the clip would not allow the heatsink to go down all the way. For good or bad, my solution was to remove the retention clip and cut the offending outer plastic nubs off with a pair of snips. Also, the north bridge heat sink is too close to allow the bottom clip to be closed easily.
You may want to add this motherboard to the incompatible list as well. It will fit, but I would not expect somebody to mess with the NB heat sink or the retention clip.
