I SHOULD be able to mount it the way they intended. My motherboard is listed on Noctua's site as compatible. I did not get the heatsink earlier because I had oversized RAM (my DDR2-800). My DDR2-1066 now installed is standard size RAM.

I am signing out to install the cooler now.

I have finished installation, and I have wrote up my thoughts on the cooler.

Default Lap Results

For those of you curious how TIM spreads after I finished lapping my Thermalright SI-128 back during the reign of Xaser TASER (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) I have taken a picture of the spread after I removed it from my Deneb.

That is the SI-128. I suppose if temperatures do not come down, I will need to check the spread of the new NH-C12P.

Blitz, that looks very similar to mine after the removal. I might of had a tad less left over but it wasn't a big deal. How flat is the NH-C12P?

Good luck

I did not empirically test it, but it looked flat.

Blitz, I was just wanting to double check to make sure the base surface was making full contact with the IHS. Did you get a chance to check the surface with a straight edge?

Good luck

Checking with a straight edge would be what I refer to as empirically. So no, I did not.

Blitz, check it out. Perhaps the surface is not what it seems by just looking at it with the naked eye

Good luck
