Looking at a Rosewill L-4500 or equivalent 4U server chassis to house a 2nd gen 2950X and a wraith ripper. I know the Wraith ripper is 6.3 inches tall so that leaves .7 inches or about 17mm for the standoffs and height of the proc on the mobo. Wondering if anyone at Servethehome has attempted this?

Thanks!

Sorry yes I did, I built two of them. One of which is collecting dust. Too bad it would be really expensive to ship, I'd gladly part with one of them

How'd you use that heatsink in a 4U chassis? I've never found any cooler taller than 150mm (5.9") that would fit in a 4U.
Sorry I didn't end up using the Wraith Rippers I used Noctua's I have a brand new Wraith Ripper sitting here collecting dust. Sad I know. ONly one is in production, the other is unused but racked. I'll see if I can take some pics. Here sometime soon
