"DFI Infinity LANboy" Its a DFI Lanparty B, OR a DFI infinity, i believe

The Capacitor bank is a common issue with the NF7, if you want a quick fix, by some aluminium tubing or similar, and cut some equal length spacers. I dont know how the spring tension works on the apogee, but assuming its a 'number of turns' rather than a 'do it down tight' thing, the turns will be the same.

Realistically, its the motherboard manufacturers fault, rather than swiftechs - they did not adhere to the 'keep out' area. Other manufacturers do the same (DFI and the capacitor height on one of their 939 boards springs to mind) - its not uncommon.

Id suggest doing the spacers trick - suggest it to swiftech, perhaps?

At any rate, the apogee isnt the best choice for socket A, is it?
2 months for shipping? jesus, thats awful.
