By all accounts this is a very good cooler and reasonably priced at around £30.
Anyone tried/bought one?
Would like a bit if personal feedback :)

Me too. I've read only good things about this cooler.
Hm ended up getting the TRUE black - it does perfectly :)
Do you have any temps you could share, how easy to fit?. I am interested in this one myself for a m8.
For the thermalright?

Thats with a sharkoon silent eagle 1000RPM fan blowing over it.
Tbh even with the help of one other person I did not find this easy to install...
For the Zerotherm?Quote:

No problem m8, I misunderstood I thought u had bought one:mrgreen:
Indeed it looked good on the review, the only thing that concerned me was the fixed fan if it fails you cant replace it with a generic 92mm.
Apparantly you actually can replace it, I can't recall where but I'm sure I read somewhere that someone had managed to remove it and replace it.
which part did you find hard?Quote:

edit: mind you i'm using the AM2 mounting plate so i'm not sure what the intel mounting is like...
Its just hard to get the pins through the mobo whilst holding on the backplate and holding the heatsink in place too.
The wireclips took a bit of persuasion too.
if you go at an extreme angle with the wire clips (they take alot of stick) then they slip in nice and easy :)Quote:
