Lian Li V1000 and new board+heatsink issues

Post by GermanJulian » Fri Oct 21, 2005 2:57 am

Hi,
I have a Lian Li v1100 (or V1000) case, as you know the case is the other way around (motherboard is mounted to left not right) which meas the CPU socket is at the bottom of the case and unfortunately the case has a floor which means that certain mobo combos and heatsink dont fit.

I want to get an asus A8N motherboard and the Scythe Ninja cooler or the XP120... can anyone tell me if they fit in the case without hitting the floor. the XP120 looks like it would hit the floor.

A Scythe Ninja should have enough clearance installed on an A8N. My Scythe Ninja on an A8V Deluxe hovers around 1/2 in to 3/4 inches over the base of the V1100.
