Amazing cooler, but i also use the OCz Gladiator for those mid size cases, it has 4 heat pipes instead of 3 and it also has H.D.T. it works just as well if you put on a nice 4000RPM fan

i did asshole, it just was difficult. the socket was the right one.
-
i have push pins on my stock cooler its fine...

you have to read the fckn CPU socket types supported before you buy it!!!!!!

xigmatek hdt s-1283 sucks with push pins, its really very diifcult to attch it, but its fine with backplate and screws :) i love this cooler

I am sure you can use any tape...I just like the idea of using a tape made for electrical use...so if any gets stuck it wont short the board.
Still when I first ran into push pins my temps were mid 40s on idle...46-47c on hottest core so yeah I noticed a hell of a difference.
i got this cooler today and it was fucking difficult to attach to the mother board. it didnt fit!

If the fitting isn't connecting to connectors on motherboard, i suggest you to uy xigmatek or thermalright bolt thru kit(screws) to mount the heatsink.Many people reported the fact that it lowers temps but it's alsow easier to mount and it's more secure.

you could do all this, or just buy a retention bracket

True, it lowers the temps and is great to enjoy setting near the case and not worrying how will your next lan party ruin your motherboard :)
