I ordered it and it's the one without AM3/1156 brackets. It has a 1366 and a 775 setup. Had to order the AM3 bracket for 5$ from Corsiar

I can also recommend this cooler. I just installed it yesterday with 2 Noctua NF-P12 fans and this is really keeping my Core i5 cool. I am averaging in the low 20-25C degree for standard browsing activity. This along with extremely quiet operations and making me really like this cooler.

ivandurago; You have a really cold house o.O 68° is freaking icy![/QUOTE said:oops. definitely a typo. Just fixed it. Meant to say btw 30-35C. Averaging btw 30 & 32 when I run my i5 at stock speeds. Just increased it a bit to run my DDR3 memory at 2000Mhz. Now temps are running btw 33 & 35. Still relatively cool.
Is this thing better than my Noctua?
Ambient: 65-70 degrees F
Idle: 30 degrees C
100% load (prime95 30 minutes): 67 degrees C
Would this be a waste for a core i5 750 running at stock speeds?
But anyway, I've been happy w/ the h50 so far - but no, it's no substitute for a proper setup.
Have you tried just exhausting the H50 rad fan and seeing if theres any significant deterioration in temps? I think youll find that any, if at all, will be negligable.
Does anyone know if it's possible to use a 120mm x 12mm fan with the H50 instead of the stock 120mm x 25mm one?

Disappointed with this cooler, got it cheap and test it and my temp are out there, on idle I get 39c and at full load I get 79c
I was getting similar temps stock clock using crappy TIM. I used better TIM and started seeing far better temps under OC full load. Are you already using quality TIM?
I personally havent seen significant differences in using a push & pull nor exhaust vs. intake fan configuration. Therefore, I just use a single fan (Scythe S-Flex) in push / exhaust.
Actually the stock TIM is pretty high quality Shin Etsu.
