Default Swiftechs a no go on Thunder K7!

I have received my Thunder K7, finally, it's the new model, with the plastic socket levers and BIOS 2.06 already there. However, I have run into a problem. CPU1 does not obey the no mount zone around the socket. Two capasitors are in the way when attempting to mount a Swiftech water block. I have now ordered Two MAZE2 blocks from dangerden. Just kinda upsets me, 50 bucks a block and I can't use them. Here's a pic of the problem.


The red line is about where the swiftech block is. The orange line is about where a dangerden block will be. Swiftech blocks are 3" square. ( Yes, those are Golden Sockets in the pic, I'm hoping to get these up to 1.5Ghz )
