    I hate those push pins.
    I got a crossbow for my Xigmatek 1283 well worth the extra few pounds. Stops your fingers from hurting and the MB from bending.
    Yeah sure you have to get the MB out to do it but thats not a huge job!

    Re: Xigmatek Crossbow

    I was thinking, should I get a new fan for the heatsink? I've heard from several people that the default fan was a bit noisy and not that efficient. I was thinking of getting this one, as I got really good feedbacks on it http://www.thecoolingshop.com/produc...oducts_id=3445

    Use the one it comes with first, then if it's too noisey for you consider replaceing it.
