Ninja Mini on Asus P5E

Pixelz · #1 (**permalink**) 02-12-2008, 03:33 PM

Anyone using a Ninja Mini with an Asus P5E?
I'm worried the fan will cover the nearest DIMM slot if I need to install it on that side. See picture --

I didn't already have the P5E, but not the Ninja Mini.
Checkout this review for the mini.

It's a socket 775 motherboard (but maybe not a P5E). The picture shows one fan clip touching the DIMM. I might use the Zipang cooler instead.

Hello everyone

The Ninja Mini should be fine with this Mobo. The image in SPCR showing the fan mounted lower, you can actually move the fan or mount it on a different side =P

The Asus P5E should be fine. If you have the Mobo, then you can simply measure the height of the cooling around the socket. Ninja Mini fins starts at a height of 37mm.
