Hi
Help Please with this new build...
Does anyone have experience of which fan will fit onto the above motherboard, without issue?
After installing the above CPU into the above Mobo.
I then tried to install the above CPU Cooler...
But the top-left 1151-mounting-hole of its mounting bracket wouldn't quite line up with the mounting-hole in the mobo!
It seems to be about 1-to-2mm out of line.

This is because the top left corner of the mounting bracket can’t go up & over far enough,
because it fouls on, the small component above it, and the large component/heatsink to the left of it.
So does anyone have experience of which fan will fit onto the above motherboard, without issue?
NB:: Last time on an earlier mobo (GA-Z87-HD3) I used the recommended Intel cooler, which was compact, cheap, and easy to fit, so is a similar compatible version available for this mobo?
Many thanks.
