Noctua NH-U12F CPU Cooler

Does anyone know where I can obtain the fixing brackets for this cpu cooler. I have one set but wish to add a second fan but haven't the fixings?

Thanks

Cable ties should do the job.

Many thanks, never thought of that.

Also are there any parts you can purchase which can direct air to the CPU cooler from the case fans or would that not be adviasable?

I think the extra fan only made a 2 deg difference though.

I wouldn't interfere too much with the internal airflow of the case as it should be designed so that air goes where it's needed (ha!). But there's nothing wrong with adding a little extra where it's needed - I added an HDD cooler to a spare 5.25" bay yesterday and this blows air straight at the RAM and HSF, dropping the CPU temp by 3C. The nearest OcUK has is this one - mine was only 8 quid from a competitor but is beige and looks hideous in my black case.
