NSK 3480 cooler clearance

Post by tipo33 » Sun Sep 01, 2013 7:25 am

I have an NSK 3480, and I'm putting together a build with some spare parts. I have:
AMD Phenom II "555"
4g Corsair DDR3
Intel X-40 SSD
I was looking at the ASRock 880GM-LE and the Cooler Master Hyper 212 PLUS, however I am unsure if the cooler would hit the top of the case.
This computer will simply serve as a PFsense server. I would like to build a computer using the spare components I have on hand.

I have a 212 inside a 3480, so it works (it's bolted onto an MSI LGA775 mobo).
