heatsink/fan compatibility

[bearcat 0]

Alright, I'm thinking about buying http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-112-006&depa=0

that heatsink and using my Vantec Tornado as the fan.

 

Will they be compatible?

 

The other version comes with a 80 mm sq. x 25.4 mm fan.

 

Here's a link to it: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=35-112-007&depa=0

 

I'm just concerned that my Vantec Tornado won't fit with the heatsink.

 

My Vantec Tornado is 80 x 80 x 38 mm.

Gee guy they're both 80mm. One is 1/4 thick and the other 3/8. Worst case you gotta source longer screws or just use the fan that comes with it. either way it's no heart attack.
