Here's a picture how I modified my Spire 5D21B3 cooler: I used a small cutter to create the extra space required to mount the 5D21B3 on an ABit KT7a Raid board:Quote:

Nuke thermaltake!!! I lapped a volcano 2 for
hours only to discover a bubble in the base of the heatsink. What a P.O.S.!!! :mad:
The Orb fans + t-bird combos have been the biggest cpu crushers i have seen.

LOL!! Chrome Orb is my worst Nightmare!!! I have to cut the part off in order to fit into my Motherboard.
Also This damn Orb gave me a hard time to remove it!!! Remember, Folks.....DON'T BUY CHROME ORBS!!!!!
:mad:
I wasted two Duron 600's while installing a water cooling block. These things are like egg shells! At lease they were cheap!!!
I've used a chrome orb on my T-bird 1.1ghz and it was a little hard to put on and off, but I did not have any space/fitting problems, hte clips are just hard to press.Quote:

All in all, I like thermaltake and I would buy from them again if I ever need to.
