Will it fit: xp120 and a passive chipset cooler?
Any socket 939 motherboard that can handle a xp120 cpu cooler and a tall chpset cooler like the zalman ZM-NB47J (blue)?
Asus A8N-E is one. Here is a pic of the chipset cooler.

I've got a DFI Lanparty NF4 Ultra-D.
I'm using an XP-120, which misses the ram but probably blocks the first PCI-E slot (I'm not sure, since I don't have a card to try in there). I'm using a Zalman 47J on the chipset, which blocks any cards longer than the 16x slot in the 2nd slot. It also doesn't seem to be good enough for passive cooling, though I need to experiment more. I'm using a Zalman ZM-80D HP on my GeForce 6600GT which blocks the 3rd PCI-E slot and the first PCI slot, leaving me with one usable PCI slot.
