@Hal: Here's the link to the topic on how to mod the standoffs to fit an AN35. I would check really close for fin interference, though. The SLK-947-U has a little different fin profile than the models you are talking about, so the fins would clear components close by. The PSU and the NB heatsink will be the culprits that are in the way. I still had to bend the fins a tad on my Zalman ZM-NB47J HS to get a little clearance.

Thanks: the models I'm talking about aren't terribly expensive, but they're no good if they don't fit the Shuttle, since the Jetway has no mounting holes. I may go for it, though... it's always another part for the spares box!

The SLK-900-U might be the best bet. The standoffs would still have to be modded, though. I'm pretty sure it's fin profile is the same as the SLK-900-A, which has clip type mounting and is listed on the Thermalright website to fit the AN35.

a good sink wouldve been the alx-800,there with the 900 oerformance wise,maybe 1/2 the cost

The only tiny modification I had to make was to trim one of the plastic washers flat on one side so that it cleared a tiny component next to one of the mounting holes. Other than that very small detail, the SLK-900U fits the AN35/N without alteration.

That was why I modded the standoffs to clear those tiny components next to the mounting holes. Just trimming the plastic washer may allow the standoff to contact the component causing a grounding problem. Please, don't fry it.
