THERMALRIGHT clashes with GIGABYTE board

There is not enough clearance with the new socket mounts and the capacitors on the new GIGABYTE board.

Now I have to buy a new heat sink.

Oh, well.

The fit was tight with the old board. This one tighter still; I was able to attach it, but something went wrong.

Could there be a need to isolate the bottom plate from the plate (with FOXCOMM etched into it) attached to the MB? I will try this tomorrow.

I set it back up with the INTEL heatsink/fan to let it continue to burn in.
