I just got my mugen 2 and I can't hear the fan @ max, although I can't even hear myself think over my gtx260 @ 80%. I didn't notice that much of a temp drop compared to my previous cooler but then again I have a low-end dual core, not an oven of a quad (yet).

How hard is Mugen II to install? I heard some rumors that it is very hard to install and almost impossible to do alone. What is the truth?

EDIT: And second question. Does Mugen II fit in HAF 922 case?

Hey guys,

I figure i should ask in case i decide to get this cooler... the price and size make 100% tempting over a TRUE or Megahalem (yah i know Megahalem is slightly better).

Question, will it fit on my Gigabyte Extreme EX58 mobo?

OVER the Silent Pipes w/c mount?

I've measured and its a close call, just wondering if i can get 100% assurance.


Cheers.
