Does anyone happen to know if an XP-120 will fit on a DFI Lanparty UT nF4 SLI-DR? I have one I was planning on using on an ASUS A8N-SLI, but the more I read reviews and suggestions here the more I'm leaning towards the DFI board for my AMD 64 upgrade.

Sharkyextreme picked this combo for their AMD system, but the DFI site says, "First PCI-e slot blocked by Heatpipes." Does that mean I can't use SLI? I'm trying to nail down the ground truth.

    That is a confirmed YES!

    Here is a link

    There are some issues to watch out for like:

    You must install memory before the HS
    You must install HS prior to mounting the board in case.
    Some dimms w/ tall heat spreaders won't fit.

    Just to tell you that there is another option to you that will surely greatly do the job. Look for the XP-90C, i read a lot of review of this one, it's smaller and gives good performance :D

    That's the one i've chose for my new PC.

    Thanks, mtgoat. I googled, but didn't find a thread as detailed with pictures as the one you posted.

    GooD,
    I have nothing against the XP-90, but I already have an XP-120 thanks to Equito.
