Installation
Installation to our Z77 motherboard couldn’t be any easier with, it really is just a case of applying the thermal paste and putting the cooler on so that the 4 screws go through the holes in the motherboard
Then flipping the motherboard over and putting the 4 nuts that are supplied onto the protruding threads. They even give you a little spanner to tighten them up with.
That’s it, no other steps for installation, it really was one of the easiest coolers I have ever fitted. Once it is fitted there is plenty of room between the cooler and the RAM so you are not limited to low profile RAM, any ram will be compatible with this cooler. In the picture below, you can see there is around a 10mm gap.
So it is very silent CPU cooler with very poor performance?
This thing is a piece of garbage, do not buy! The horrible design leads to having to use far more thermal compound than necessary. The stock cooler performs better, even if it is louder.
