Thread revival!!!
Just wanted to remind people that there's an alternative to bending and it's called
Accelero Twin Turbo. Pretty much a S1 with lower height and two fans, and a slightly shorter distance between the fins. I guess the fans are removable.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the Twin Turbo is just an optional double-80-mm fan assembly for either the S1 or the S2. The picture is pretty misleading, though.

LOL, look again. Compare
this PDF with
this one
Still don't believe me? Check
out any of the reviews.
Finally, here's the
Twin Module, maybe that's what you're talking about.

Son of a gun! I'll eat crow on this one for sure - yeah, the old one was the Turbo Module, with 2 fans, not the new Twin Turbo cooler. Great marketing, guys!
looks like it really is a smaller cooler. Would it fit in an NSK2400 / Antec Fusion?? The PDF doesn't show a height, but it looks considerably shorter than the S1/S2.
Thanks for the tip.

It's 35 mm lower than the S1, if you look at the link in my first post. Open the PDF, adjust the zoom until the width is 212 mm, then use a scale to check the height.
Compare with the max height in your case, measure from one of the mounting holes, or the center of the GPU. It goes 67 mm above the center of the GPU.
