Please note the speculative nature of that recommendation !!!! I have

joined this list :-).

I didn't find anything on NewEgg. I'll see what Monarch has. AMD's stock
fan and heat sink is about 50mm high. If I can get it down to about 25mm
I should be good to go.
Does anyone have any notes on heat sink-only cooling. I'm sure it
depends on airflow in the case (which is good in my case) but I'd like
to hear any experiences.

Roger that, extremely important observation. Monarch lists 1U heat
sinks with fins aligned both ways, for about the same price. Pick the
one with fins aligned with your case fans & you would probably be
well off. *Speculation again* :-).<br>
