In this thread, I will have 4 tests in total. 2 tests with fans on high and low with a push-pin setup, and 2 tests with fans on high and low with a bolt-thru setup.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I have my e6750 overclocked to 3.2ghz at stock voltages (1.35v). And the AS5 is CURED.

Note: When idling for 15 minutes, the PWM exhaust fan spins at 800rpm. When on load, it spins at 1500rpm. For the loading the cpu, I used small FTT's on prime95 for 30 minutes.

PUSH-PIN SETUP
Test 1. Fans on low
I had my sig rig on idle for 15 minutes. The idle temps read 32C/33C. For the load test, I had prime95 on small FTT's. The load temps read 55C/55C.

Test 2. Fans on high
Once again, I had my sig rig on idle for 15 minutes. The idle temps read 31C/32C. Once again, I had prime95 on small FTT's. The load temps read 51C/51C.


BOLT-THRU SETUP
Test 1. Fans on low
I had my sig rig on idle for 15 minutes. The idle temps read 26C/28C. For the load test, I had prime95 on small FTT's. The load temps read 48C/48C.

Test 2. Fans on high
Once again, I had my sig rig on idle for 15 minutes. The idle temps read 25C/27C. Once again, I had prime95 on small FTT's. The load temps read 45C/45C.


Note: CPU Temps are NB Temps, while System Temps are Ambient temps.

Did you have to do any mods to make it fit snug? Right after I asked that question I saw someone post this bolt thru kit and that it needs no mods for the vendetta 2

LaoFX

I heard you have to file down the mounting posts about 2mm. Or you can just put a piece of cardboard of somesort that fills the 2mm gap between the mobo and the backplate. I didnt get my bolt-thru kit yet, reason why I dont have any test results for the bolt-thru setup.
