Worked great for FM2

So I ordered this to restore my old setup which I had to take apart. Historically, the A10-6800k has been a pretty hot chip. The assembly was quite easy. You must use the AM3 grommets to mount the FM2, but the installation and overall assembly was pretty easy in my opinion. Once everything is assembled and the Arctic MX5 is up and running, the PC will idle at 30-32 degrees Celsius and play around 43 degrees. A difference of 10 degrees is quite decent. You can watch HD videos all day and it only goes up 1 degree. I am satisfied with this cooler both in terms of functionality and design. Hardware setup Mobo F2A85-v-PRO, CPU A10-6800k, GSkill Ripjaws 32GB DDR3 (1866), Seagate 480GB SSD, Seagate 1TB HDD, Wifi 6 PCI and so far everything works perfectly thanks to this cooler.
