[Cube] sonnet encore/st upgrade question - have I got the wrong kit?

[Laurie A Duncan]

You were shipped the wrong card. The Cube card (which doesn't have that huge
fansink on it) is SG4C12002M  (note the letter "C").

Contact the vendor or Sonnet for replacement. I am certain you'll void your
warranty of you just strip the heatsink and fan - although technically, it
is the same board underneath
