Prolimatech Megahalems

does this cpu cooler come with 2 sets of fan clips, or 1?
in pictures i only see 1 set but a few reviews say that it comes with 2.
just want to check so i can buy the clips if it doesnt.

thanks

well i asked the other day they said you need to just order 2 fans.

 

[Ginger-Menace]

so the cooler does come with 2 sets of clips?

Yes, it comes with clips for 2 140x25 or 120x25 fans. If you want to use 38mm deep fans you'll have to buy the clips separate. Most fans are 25mm deep though

thank you! while i have this thread, is there a cable to connect the 2cpu fans to, so it will connect to the cpu fan header?

If you want to use 2 x PWM fans, youll need one of theese.

can any one tell me if the thermal paste that comes with the megahalems is any good or should i buy some? and which should i buy?

Supposedly it is good stuff - MX2 level so I hear.

I remember that the OCUK head builder mentioned that they use it on OCUK overclocked builds a lot, because it performs well and comes with the heatsinks.

Im thinking of this cooler but it does block the ram slots.

 

[Ginger-Menace]

i dont think it does chippy, but it depends on how high you ram heat spreaders are i suppose

 

[chippy08]

mine are not high just xms stuff.

 

[chippy08]

The trouble is i have the Thermaltake Element G case and it has a massive fan on the side panel not sure if i could still get the side panel back on with the fan in place.

 

[Ginger-Menace]

not to sure about it, i know that im buying a haf x case because the cooler wont fit my antec 902 lol
