I'm not sure what review said when originally released, but it sure wasn't what it says now.In our case though we had no choice but to remove a stick of RAM and run our system in single channel mode. We could have run the R1 using one fan and kept both sticks of RAM but this would impact the R1 Ultimate’s design profile and we did not want to do that.
They claim:I take it that the AF stands for April Fool?
AF41 is short for Air Flow For #1
That jungle river place has them.New colours/Fans out but still no sign of anywhere to buy in UK.

If R1 Ultimate is too wide at 140mm, how is U14S at 150mm width going to fit. That is 5mm farther over PCI-E socket.http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=HS-000-ND&groupid=701&catid=2330
Fan misses Ram slots but cooler just blocks top PCI-E slot.
Not sure why they do not offset the coolers up and to left (did read it had an offset of some sorts).
Interesting.Nice looking cooler but who wants 1281g = **2lb 13.186oz** thats roughly a bag of sugar hanging from your motherbroad.
If it was me l would use something to support the cooler and to relieve the weight of the mobo.
Make sure you put all the mobo screws in especially in the top half or your mobo will wrap.
Thats one of the reasons l went custom loop was the size + weight coolers were getting to cool the CPU.
