Just got round to putting my new machine together!

[sanj]

Not really a new pc from PCS,but as I work there I thought i'd just show some of new the new Thermalright Silver arrow cooler i'm fitting in my new i7 rig.

Lot's of work to do as all the hard drive's are coming out and cable management is going to take hour's and I can't be bothered today!

Silly question.. But how does it not put stress on the motherboard? Won't the weight on it eventually snap/crack the screw holes where it's connected? :l

No but the PC has to be bolted to the floor so that it does'nt take off.

I don't actually know whether to believe you or not.. I have a mental image of a pc just sort of lifting off... Not that im gullible or anything..

Yet another big massive cooler lol. Even though its safe, it makes me wonder if these coolers will ever drop off.. lol

I know someone who is a big worry wart with his cooler so he made a wooden stick to balance his big cooler by very slightly pushing it up on the edge top of the cooler so it isnt bent or slighlt slanted haha. Its just balanced on the stick.

Why not just put the PC on it's side problem solved

Lol i told him that but he said it will just look like a plain worthless box if he did that xD also it would of blocked his cooling vents.

Haha!To be honest it's quite light,around the same weight as the Thermalright 120 x-treme I had on my old quad core setup and fit's very nicely indeed with plenty of bracket's and screw's to hold it in place and super quiet with the 140mm dual fan's,cpu is idleing at around 27oC at the moment,my pc won't be going anywhere as the number of hard drive's and other thing's keep it in place!

I think this quote pretty much sums up my reaction to this cooler's size;

BY THE BEARD OF ZEUS!!!

xD
