FAQ 2
   
Question :  I have a MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard, would I be able to install a XP-90? The capacitors seem to be in the way.
 
Answer : 
Yes, but you might have to tilt the capacitors enough to clear way for the heat sink. Install the XP-90 in which the overhanging fins are over the memory slots. Do the clip hooking on the capacitor side first for an easier installation.
