The right product for me, there were no problems.

I was assembling a silent system, so even before buying I decided to change the fan. I chose the cheapest tower, with the installation of the quietest fan. The experiment was a success!

Perhaps the installation is more sophisticated than on others, but no more difficult than assembling a table from Ikea.

Intel shouldn't be a problem at all. If the clips for AMD are bent as in the instructions, no problem either.

*BUT if you got DIRECT AMD'S CLIPS here dances with a tambourine will begin! Curved, due to the bend, they should fit snugly against the mount under the mat. board, straight lines are missing about a centimeter.

SOLUTION: 1. Purchase in the household bolts of the required length. 2. If you're as lucky as I am, you might be able to integrate the base from the oldcomoler with this one. I used the base and latch from Deepcool Gamma archer, everything went with a bang, even the bolts look more reliable there.

Somewhere on the forum I found that the author managed to attach with direct clips. I can’t imagine how he did it, if they are bent, then the bolt with the hole will not match, and the bolts are too short if you don’t pull.

I recommend warming up the thermal paste with a hair dryer. she iscomld and hard

Pros

1) Absolutely silent with a low-speed Scythe fan (SY1225SL12SL) instead of the standard one. 2) In my performance, acceptable performance. With the case open, Phenom x4 965 kept 30C in office tasks, 20 min stress test - 47C. Worse indoors: office - 44C, stress 5min - 60C. Let me remind you that Scythe spins 500 rpm, while the box has 2022. 3) Suitable for any 120mm fan. 4) Two fans are attached.

Cons

1) Fastening for AMD, in case of direct clips it promises dancing with a tambourine * (see comments). 2) The fan in the kit cannot be called quiet. Even using an adapter with a resistor that reduces the speed to 900-1200 does not really solve the problem. 3) It can’t cope without a fan, the load is immediately 63C (the ceiling of the processor is 62). However, even the slowest valve solves the problem. 4) Even in the reviews they write that the bolts are very flimsy, it is easy to break the thread.
