K7M owners...what heatsink is U Usink???

[kelin]

I have been doing a little homework re: putting a decent(or decadent) heatsink(cooler) on my K7M/K7 650...As you all know this is a prob due to the really STOOPID placement of the ATX PS Connector right NEXT to the CPU Slot A!!!
Anyway, after looking around it looks like the Global FKK-50 with the 50mm fans, or a 60 and 50...and maybe one the fan adjacent to the ATX Connector raised up a bit MIGHT work...
Anyone with the K7M please let me know what CPU cooler you are using...
Thankx...

What this word needs are cpu extensions or spacers to raise it up above the mb various amounts.

I have an athlon 500@700 on a K7M board and use a GlobalWin VEK32 cooler, which is really good......but I had to shave abit of the plastic off the edge od the cooler and off the side of the power connecter and now it fits ok.
