yep yep, i just put in a custom order for a shim to raise the 09 up, and some sinks for the gimped bga's due to the pipes. (custom sinks that flip under the card for extra cooling) will post pics once i get it all and installed.

*edit* here is a pic i stole from the maker of the custom sinks

Do they come in copper too?

Thats good work on that, the one thing i hated about my attempt was those stupid flat RAM sinks. When you get your shim and such through keep us up to date on your progess.

hmm i notice you have the hr09 Slant model, the one i got is the upright model think it will clear the gpu sink?

Ugh, I do not think so...I think you will be hitting the HR-03. You can bend it yourself though

I tried mounting the HR09S the other way around to catch more direct airfow but it was too tight against the HR03. i thought the upright version should fit and probably trap more air but i am not positive.
But as Dejanh mentions you can just bend it a bit.
