probably would help.

I guess ziptie it through the gaps.

I'll get you some info later. You might want to see if people have the bolt thru kit for it. That could affect the temps.

I bought the Thermalright bolt-thru kit for mine. Works like a charm.

O RLY?

What's that fan mount on the back then?

[Blameless]

That fan isn't on the "back" of the heatsink. The are showing the PWM cooling spoiler you can stick on the back.

There is no fan mount on the back (though obviously you can turn the heatsink around). Still, if you are determined to, you can mount whatever you want on it, any where you want. regardless, a second fan would only be a small help.

As for the bolt-thru kit, I am also using the Thermalright kit on mine, works quite well.
