i have removed the ihs and it's cooled by cnps 9500.
I'm loving that you got those results with a CNPS 9500. What are your ambient, idle and load temps? I have a 165 and a 170 on the way....... both CCBWE 0550 UPMW!!

I modified my retention element on the mobo, so I could mount my Zalman 9500 with studs through the mobo- just like a waterblock would.... knurled nuts and all.
