Thermalright Ultra-120 cooler:
Enclosure: Ultra

Power Supply: Ultra
X-Connect X2 550watt
Processor: AMD 3000+ Sempron (Socket AM2) and AMD 3800+ X2
(Socket AM2)
Motherboard: ECS
C51GM-M
Memory: Crucial
Ballistix 2gig (2 x 1gig) DDR2 PC2-6400
Sorry for the bad pictures, my lighting died. :( But forging on, you can see in the second picture above, that when installed in the Ultra Aluminus case, the side air port that sits above the CPU, barely clears the Cooler Master Mars cooler! Putting the side panel back on can be a bit of a hassle if you don’t have the sleeve all the way back. With an ambient temperature of around 22°C, let’s take a look at the temperatures of the Mars cooler at Silent, Performance and PWM modes.
