Lol I bet it wont fit now
Ha, The next dilemma, I ran without a side cover until my new case arrived.
Lol I bet it wont fit now
I am happy to report that not only does it fit, but according to GPU-Z its brought my idle CPU temp down from around 45 degrees to 38 degrees - oh and its VERY quiet - win win!
what cooler did you endup with?
Went for the Dark Rock Pro 4 - will let you know how I get on
Does the standoffs have equal thread length on each side ?Yup exactly but where they can just pop the thumb screws and tighten up. On mine they are barely protruding.
Yeah I’ve tried each way but some of them only fit one way.Does the standoffs have equal thread length on each side ?
I'm sure that if it was diffrent it would have shown in the video but I thought I would ask.

In this thread a guy has the same problem as you and he contacted arctic and they sent him longer thread standoff.I think I’ll just return and try a different one. Hopefully get the stock cooler back on without issue.
Wow somethings not quite right there, what case and fans do you have ?Ah yes that’s the thread I saw. I’ve put the original cooler back in and will look at alternatives. My CPU is currently 60degrees at idle so need something better.
