Gah...can't wait. I've got an itchy trigger finger and I want to pick one up but I also want to wait on your results as well. Guess I'll hold off for another week then. Frostytech seems like they'll be putting up a review on this cooler soon too.

I wish I could get at it sooner, but my new shift is playing havoc with computer item play time.

I'm currently working 3:30 PM to 12 midnight, and that shift seems the worst for having spare time during the workweek. I find that I relax for an hour or two after work, and then only really have enough time during the day to do a few errands before it's time to start getting ready for work. Starting Sunday my shift hours change to 6PM to 2:30 AM so I suspect I'll have a bit more time during the day to get some stuff done.

Got mine installed on my new I7 DO with the Coolermaster fan in pull and a Scythe KAZE-JYUNI SY1225SL12M in push. Haven't had time to load the OS yet, tomorrow is another day. It is easy to install and easily clears all ram even with the closest slot and tall ram. (P6T-SE)

Haven't had time for pics. It will eventually make its way onto my tech station and replace my Q9450, at that time I will post some pics. (Maybe sooner)

No you have to post pics, otherwise your avatar will come true, only this time you will hear a shot and a hole in your foot

Here are some crappy pics but you can see plenty of room even with both fans. Rig is bottom sig.

Cool!!! So how are your temps so far?

I've got a decent OC dialed into my 720be so I'll be able to post some comparison #s by tuesday.

WC results are locked.... currently doing a 1hr burn in on the stock cooler, and might be able to mount the Hyper 212 Plus tonight.....

Any preferences on cooling options? I'm hoping to be able to check out the stock fan on it's own, then two 1350 NCIX YLs, then two 38mm 2K rpm Ultra Kaze (assuming the clips work with a wider fan).

I'll be putting up stock, mid OC, high OC results.
