I'm running @ stock or it gets too hot (im using a zalman 9500 cps) my advice is to ignore everyone here and never remove the IHS on your cpus. Nice, now my cpu runs hotter.
right .... did you sand the mounts ( brackets ) cuz otherwise they are made for cpu's WITH ihs, you have to sand the plastic down.
