Hello ^^
leventer74: MSI 865pe NEO2-PS seems to be Socket 478. Only the capacitors around the socket could be an issue, besides that there seems to be nothing interfering mounting. p935: Asus P5K PRO should be fine as you mentioned. Mounting the Push Pins should ok as others have used them too. As for the DHX RAM, never tried, but they seem to be pretty far away. Worst case, you use the second slot for RAM. If you mount the fan not over the RAM, should be fine with first slot. Oliver: I have answered him anyway, to add my feedback. You have answered him for sure, but just in case ;D ashrack: Thanks, the mobo was added to the list ![]()

No problem and congrats on your wonderful HSF and also apperantly good PR relations. Could you check this thread: http://www.scythe-eu.com/forum/ninja...t-get-hot.html I am not sure if I had done something wrong when I placed it on the CPU because the HEATSINK doesnt get hot but just warm even thou the OCed CPU temperature is 50C

Hi!
I have Asus a8n-sli premium and Scythe Ninja PLUS (SCNJ-1000P). I'm going to update my hardware to Core 2 Duo E8400 LGA775 (Penryn) and Abit IP35 Pro. Is this old Ninja+ compatible with my new hardware? |

Hello pexi!
Unfortunately most of the Scythe staff is at CeBit trade show at the moment. I think they'll reply as soon as they are back. Basically it should be possible to install your Ninja Rev. A on a Socket 775 if you kept all your accessoire parts. Info concerning installation on Socket 775: ftp://ftp.scythe-eu.com/Manuals/CPU%...U%20Cooler.pdf The Ninja Rev. A is quite similar to the Rev. B with the additional Retention Kit. This means that backplate, rails and Socket 478 brackets are used to mount the cooler an Socket 775 boards. Looking at the pictures of Abit IP35 Pro I believe it should be compatible. Those chipset coolers around the CPU socket seem quite high - that's something you'd have to test. You could also measure those cooler's height an compare it to Ninja's dimensions found in this thread: http://www.scythe-eu.com/forum/ninja...imensions.html First of the aluminium fins begins at 37-39mm height. So if your chipset coolers are lower than that the cooler should clear them. For an official answer you'll have to wait I'm afraid. ![]() Bye Oliver

Hello!
Ok, thanks for the answer! I haven't ordered those new parts yet, so i can't measure the heatsinks. It is so hard to find that damned CPU from here (Finland). So if I don't have those accessories anymore Well, I wait for Scythe's official answer before I order the board. Btw, great coolers! |
