I have a question about the mounting. i have an evo installed on an asrock z77 extreme 4. I have the outer 4 screws cranked down but i dont know how tight to screw the thumb screw in the middle? Im running an ivy3570 at 4.5 ghz . it idles at between 37 and 38 c. is this good? the cooler isnt as tight as i thought it should be, it can move a little bit if i bump it. any thoughts would be appreciated. i was afraid to crank thumb screw and crack something.

That is not a thumb screw, you don't have to tighten it.

Can anyone tell me if theirs any dangers in mounting it the other way? No matter what I did I couldn't line up the holes right without forcing it way to hard but it mounted the opposite way just fine???? My FX-6100 is @ 4.3ghz with temps 29-30 idle and 50's at load.

I'm getting a Hyper 212 EVO soon,think I'll be joining the club then,if everything turns out fine...

It's a shame to have a 2600K,and keep it at stock settings.Would invest in a stronger cooling solution to push for 5.0Ghz,but since I'm on a budget this time,will have to settle with EVO,which packs a huge bang for buck smile.gif

I'm sure it will do fine for 4.5-4.7Ghz...

Yeah, this will draw a few laughs mad.gif. I panicked when I realized it wasn't going to mount the other way and never even realized it was upside down. Surprising its really cool and haven't had any issues with it but I am planning on doing it over at some point. it Idles @ 4.3ghz at 29c to 50's on stress tests. (FX-6100)


450

I was a little disappointed BTW. It came with scratches on the heat sink. Possibly a return frown.gif

Hello all.
My coolermaster blade master broke and now I'm using CM R4 on my 212+,will it give worse cooling?
Will it be worth changing my fans to CM Xtra Flow? These are quite cheap in India,saw some Bitfenix fans but they are quite overpriced here.
