I've got no strings to hold me down.
To make me fret, or make me frown.
I had strings but now I'm free.
There are no strings on me

Ok So I thought I would note this.
Corsair or any other manufacturers If you ever do release an AMD kit,( I know Corsair does have one on the Site that is not available yet etc coming soon).
Please use an alternative heatspreader solution.....With a popular heatsink such as the TRUE 120 there are obviously clearance issues.
It will likely save you RMA's from stubborn users making it fit and AMD users aggravation.
For obvious reasons I have swapped to my Xigamatek 1284.

I have the "scissors" for intel....I will pass.
My heatsink does not budge I will pass on that, plus spending more money.......when the solution is simple, smaller heatspreader thus cheaper costs to them = cheaper for consumer.
Secondly........with that setup my sanyo will chop up the memory.........pointing towards back of case........so only other option is blow hot air at ram and into my case......![]()
