Hey guys,

A friend of mine recently purchased the Sparkle SXT430 (with a GeForce GT430 chip in it), but we ran into a problem: The heatsink was put on the back of the card, which means it collides with the motherboard's on-board audio out at the back of the motherboard. Does anyone know of any budget-solutions to this problem such as a different cooler? (bending the cooler 90 degrees is not an option sadly enough)

I'm guessing the cheapest option is probably to just buy a new motherboard.

Say what??

Seeing that is a cheap GFX card and there isn't many aftermarket coolers that is designed for it, or at least I can't even find one. The cheapest way much as well be a new GFX card.
