New brilliant heatpipe cooler from Thermalright, the AXP-140! When putting forth the design for AXP-140, HTPC audience was our primary goal. Micro-ATX motherboards are definitely included in our plan. You would not have spacing problem with AXP-140. Basically, for mid tower cases there are two types of formats to determine compatibility with AXP-120. You will first need to confirm that your case has a width of 110mm or above. Next, locate your PSU (Power Supply unit). If your PSU is located right above the motherboard without overlapping, you’re ok to install AXP-120. If your PSU is located at the bottom then you would not be able to install AXP-140. Please refer to illustration. Current highest heatpipe cooling system is no higher than 37mm. There is a distance of 40mm from the bottom of the base to the first fin from the bottom, therefore it is safe to say that at long as you have at least 40mm of clearance, motherboards that incorporate the heatpipe cooling system will have room to work with AXP-140
