Excuse the sloppy cables, I havent cleaned anything up after putting the board back in because I want to make sure nothing is going to break before I take the time to tidy up. I had to mod the Silverstone fan to make it work with the fan clips.

it might be fine at first but im pretty sure it won't be good in the long run. maybe a brace that supports it from the top of your case or something to take some of the weight off? might be hard to do tho and still have a good mount. but i believe the highest amd specification for a cpu cooler is like 600g and i think intel is 500g and most aftermarket coolers are already over that and the TRUE copper is quadruple that. would be nice to see pics tho. i want to see a TRUE gold now but that would be around $5000 i bet. and a gold mobo would be amazing if it was possible.
I would most definitely come up with some kind of bracket. Your mobo is probably screaming right now.
anyone else notice the fins on the TRUE Copper seem thicker than "average" fins?
(thicker than the fins on the XP-90C also)
my guess is this is why its scaling so well with > air flow compared to most HSs

what fan are you using?
nice results angelreaper, but this heatsink deserves a better fan, huh?
maybe some Scythe Ultra Kaze, SanAce, Panaflow, even ADDA or Sunon... just for some testings
i have 4 akasa amber laying at my closet... used them months ago in a quiet low-end computer
A single 1400RPM fan on this HSF is a mistake, plain and simple. Especially a bad one like the Akasa Amber.
I've decided to release all my data at the end of testing, rather than trickle it out--as it is right now, a casual observer (someone just looking at graphs, or anyone who does not speak English) would get the wrong impression.
guess it will need lapping like every other true i installed

I was going to ask if anyone had lapped theirs yet, I am on a stock mounting and not lapped. I wonder if lapping and the washer trick is even needed with this one? This is my first TRUE so I am still noobish about this sink.

I'll be lapping mine once I get full unlapped results done.
Will be comparing to:
HDT-S1284EE, lapped and unlapped, pushpin and hardmounting
TRUE, lapped only (already lapped, can't unlap)
IFX-14, lapped and unlapped.
All 4 will be tested on an E6700 @ 3555MHz (395x9), 1.56v loaded (no, it doesn't need that...I just like making heat) and a QX6700 @ 3160 (395x8), 1.46v loaded (again, doesn't need that kind of volts for that lowly OC, but it's a lot of heat being made and can take temps and be stable up to tMax without issue ).
Assuming all else equal, the QX should make 56% more heat than the E6700, with neither being a lightweight (both run hot...).
On a horizontal mount, a high pressure washer setup did nothing for me on both my TRUE and TRUECu....on a vertical mount, I've seen it help my TRUE, but I won't be testing them vertically.
EDIT: I'll also be testing short load vs. sustained load for temps....I have a feeling on a 'short load' (characteristic of benchmarking, not necessarily crunching, folding, encoding, etc.) the TRUECu will do especially well.

TRUEs love airflow
The TRUECu is no exception
Can't wait for some numbers on the 4600RPM fan, I'm only testing up till ~2700RPM, so I'm curious what it'll do
that fan look sooo MEAN!!
only thing i never liked about those monsters is the huge hub (dead-zone)
wonder what a "push push pull pull" set-up would do

this Copper vs aluminum seem like you need more CFM for copper then aluminum.
i wouldnt go so far as to say it NEEDs it, more like, it can "take advantage of it" better than aluminum
from an Air benching POV, this thing will KICK a$$
the shier mass of it should eat an entire 1M run
and ask for a 4M for dessert

that sink would look great on gigabytes p45 extreme matching the over top coper heat pipes they got going on the board...........you could anchor a boat with that thing
