I'm concerned about the VRM heatsink on the right. Will the S1 clear it?

thanks

the s1 clearance space is just above the video card power plug. judging from the picture, no it will likely not but you with a little bending sure.

I've got an Asus 800GT with the same design. I removed the stock fan and shroud and ziptied a Slipstream 800rpm fan onto it. Runs very cool with enough case airflow (idle=45C/load=63C).
