My question was somewhat answered, but is there only one oriented for the heatsink on a AM2+ setup? I realize the fan can be mounted on either side of it, but how will it be oriented? Will the fan be able to blow as exhaust with it blowing air onto each heatpipe/indivudual heatsink? Also, to screw it down, don't you need a special screwdriver?
Its all philips head (the X shape). To remove the metal socket mounts on LGA 775 and LGA 1366 you need a special wrench, but it comes with it...

Like this.
It actually depends on your motherboard's mounting holes. If the holes go from left to right it will be mounted like mine, stated above.
If the holes go up to down it will be mounted the other way around.
Never mind, I forgot that am2 boards have 4 mounting holes. (I have a 939 system)

Don't take my word for it, I never had a am2 board before. But my new system is coming on thursday (am2+). I could check for you then if someone doesn't answer you by then. Which i'm sure the question will be answered by then.

I just took a look at laurie's rig and another am2+ rig and it'll mount the way I want it to. I'm going to be ordering later on this week when my money gets to my bank account from paypal. 39-41C idle on stock voltages is kinda high...not to mention the load of a game kinda kills it lol.

I have a question...


What is the best fan set up for this for maximum cooling?
I am choosing either this or Dark Knight for my i7 920.
Also, would this thing be able to handle 3.8ghtz with full load temp under 65c?

My i7 920 d0 is at 3.66ghz @ 1.19v load 57C. You should be under 65C if you play the volts right.

No doubt the Mugen 2 has better temps than the Dark Knight.

EDIT: You sound like you might be making a rig soon, if you are in the market for a new i7, check out Antares Digital, they have i7 d0s for $285.50 (Thats with shipping). Newegg will be a gamble; its $280 with free shipping, but I know that California is shipping the hotter c0s and the other centers are shipping d0s... I'd go with Antares to be safe.
