    Well, I just installed mine. And I kinda wish I didn't buy the IFX... I get the same idle temp as the Ninja and if not worse.

    e6600 @ 3.6 1.54v Idle = 54c Load = 85c

    ahh well at least it looks cool in my case, oh wait the back plate hsf doesn't fit in my P180 case.

    That might just be your problem. It adds more pressure to the mount.

    Now that you've mention it, I should try it with the back plate outside of my case. P180 is too small...

    EDIT: You are right Lad, the IFX does need the back plate to give the pressure it needs. now the temp dropped to 39 idle and 60 load outside of the case. That is freaking awsome!! Thanks for the help dude!
