    I didnt have to do anything to get it to stay. It is held perfectly in place as if it was made to do this.


    If you look at the 4870 cooler, which this came from, it gets smaller at the end and just so happens to change size just as it hits the northbridge. It also hits the 24 pin power connector on the other side. These two connection points keep it firmly in place. I can shake my computer and even turn it upside down and it stays in place.

    Edit: after looking at it more it also hits one of the bolts on my bolt through kit and one of the push pins on the northbridge to help keep it in place. Also it cant sit any lower then it is in the pic due to the height of the ram itself, which hits the top of the cooler.

    here is another pic. It sits low enough to minimize airflow loss due to air escaping from the sides.



    It keeps my naked ballistix nice and cold at 2.3 volts
