Installation
The installation is quite standard, practical and very straightforward. The
bundle includes a single mounting backplate which is compatible with all current
sockets as well as Intel's older LGA775 and 1366 sockets. The provided Cooler
Master thermal paste is of decent quality and certaily better than any
pre-applied thermal compound you find with stock coolers. The pressure on the CPU was
also good and the fan clips are handy.
Apart from all this, the cooler does not block any memory slots, since there is
a special cut-out.
