They are out yet unless you buy a retail TRUE (comes with Fan and Holder). I think TR said mid december for them to land.. You aren't the only one waiting for these either.

Cant wait to get some of these instead of those stupid wire clips that came with mine. The longest part of my build is always mounting those darn stupid fan clips. I've always wondered what happened to thermalright when they designed this kit. They're R&D team must have worked so hard on the heatsink itself then just found inspiration from a a paper clip or something to go with an ace product.
Just hope these come out soon. Ive got some san aces ready to go on once I get my hands on these mounts it's annoying me

Just in time. I got my TRUE. I fiddled around with the wire clips until I figured out that they don't work with Yate Loons.

I am not sure I understand. Anyways, I ordered two of these. They will look better than the rubber bands I am using currently.

you can easily clip, shorten, refashion those wire clips to fit just about anything. making four seperate clips (one for each corner) is usually what works in unusual situations.
if you only have one pair of clips and want to mount two fans...
cut the clips in half, you now have four corner clips, use 2 on each fan.
etc.
sorry if im not describing it well :confused:

I ordered 2 with my true... I hadn't heard it was hard to use the wire clips i just didnt want the stupid tan color to be seen.

Grr. After ordering two of the brackets, I found out that I can't run 12gb of ram with 2 fans.

Gigabyte X58-UD5. I have a Copper True. If you have 12gb of ram there isn't enough clearance between the ram and the TRUE.
Its a good fan holder. It's real simple. It is much better than the fan clips.

Hmm I have the evga so we will see i think you can but that board but never know sorry you dont have the clearance man.

One fan is still very effective with a TRUE.

If I cant put it on the TRUE and run 6 sticks i will just move it to a diff place for more airflow so its not to big of a deal.
