Just recieved a XP-120 care of me old mate Ted.From what i can see there is a bracket to replace the standard K8 heatsink surround.How difficult is the surround to fit?Do i have to remove the mobo to do it?

Thx

No you should be able to screw the bracket into your existing backplate iirc

The freezer 64 is pretty quiet at full isn't it? :confused:

For some odd reason mine is quite noisy,well noisier than anything else in the system should i say,i suppose running at 3GHZ for the last 6 months may have put the bearings under a little strain.

Heard so much about the XP-120 and thought it was about time i tried one.
