Hello there, I''m considering buying one of these, but I'm a little worried about how much power it will drain. I have a 620w PSU and don't have a good understanding of which PSU should be used vs the number of components you want to use. I would very much appreciate a little advise. Great review though, thank you.
@BogMark i have AMD mobo and have no problems with this cooler, temp never rise over 40c even after hours of stresstest(CPU on factory deffault) only complain is installation wasnt as easy. i ended up with taking mounting bracket off the mobo screwing cooler to it and them placing it back with cooler on it. far from easy install.....
Could someone please let me know how I am to remove the fan off this heat sync? I need to know in order to replace the thermal lue, thank you

Question, So when you mean pre applied thermal paste do you mean you don't have to apply thermal paste because it is already on the bottom?

@GJSmith84 the fan would plug into your mobo's CPU fan header, it would draw the same about of power as any other CPU cooler

@panny41291 it is ok a motherboard is pretty strong you can probably put a 4 pounder on it

DO NOT BUY it if you have an AMD mobo!!!
It can be installed only facing your graphic card!!!
This is designed for Intel ONLY!
