I have a Thermaltake Frio and a HAF922. It fits, but I noticed one of the bolts on the back is touching the case. Will this cause problems, or is it me just being a bit paranoid with my new system?

Thanks

You're probably safe. There's no flow of electricity through the heatsink, and therefore the clamp.

I'm thinking I may put a buffer between just to be safe. The frio came with some black foam O rings for the mounting brackets, which were part of a self adhesive black foam square. Suppose it couldn't hurt.

Good to know about the flow of electricity though, thanks!

Certainly can't hurt. Put like a 1/16" or something piece of rubber between the side panel and the bolts.

Might actually be safer, perhaps in the improbable situation of the case becoming electrified.

I had the same problem and it didn't cause me any trouble so far...actually I've never even think about it

I think you're safe
