I own one of the expensive silver-based Kryos models. x79 motherboards were just unveiled, and I am concerned that the x58 cooler will not be compatible. This concern was just further emphasized when a Gigabyte spokeman told me that the new x79 socket retention mechanism will mount directly to the cooler.
So... is there a mounting adapter in the works for the Kryos, or will I have to mod the socket itself? I have more than $300 invested in this block (body custom plated by RRT) and would hate to see it go to waste.
