i put this puppy on my quad core "G0" and i had to add 2 fans (push-pull) to make up the difference from Ultra-X....i have a silverstone 120mm in front and a silverstone 92mm pulling....the 120 is a 2.5K and the 92 is a 3.8K speed fan.
the 92 mm or 90 mm clips were not even close to being able to hold on to the fan...it was a joke!
...finally figured out that i had to bend the points that covered the screw holes....the 120mm clips worked perfectly!
the under the board brace (back plate) and TR's solution to insert these
base studs, with a rubber "O" ring for holding in position, is a
COMPLETE JOKE!...their mounting solution at least from the bottom is miserable!!!...
many thumbs down on that approach ...i had to use super glue to keep the base studs in position so it would not fall out from the back plate as i tried to push the studs into the mobo holes.
don't waste your money on this cooler...you would be better off shelling out a few more bucks and buying the Ultra-X...at least you can use a 38mm fan on that puppy!
...AND...if you are into Xtreme cooling, just buy an extra set of 120 clips from
sidewindercomputers.com and you can mount two 120mm X 38mm fans on the Ultra-X.
