The staff at PureOverclock were not only impressed by the performance of the Deepcool Frostwin Heatpipe HSF, they say the price is "best deal" they have seen to date.

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

The lga 2011 has ram slot on both sides of the cpu so orientation would not have mattered.
The heatsink had to be installed backwards on the AM3 and the 1155 because the ram was in the way. They installed it backwards because of the clearance issue. The issue was not cause by installing it backwards.
It would be nice if they gave an availability date tho. I can't find this thing for sale online.

The Clearance issue was averted BECAUSE they put it on backwards. How often do you have the heatsink sucking air from the exhaust fan?
Nimrods.

That's what my post said. Work on your reading comprehension before you start name calling.

My point is that they would have had a problem if they had installed it properly. Thats it. No one in their right mind installs a CPU cooler like that.
Also, not calling you a nimrod, I'm calling them nimrods.
Your first post claims they had issues with clearance because it was installed backwards.
The article says it has clearance issues. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. The article talks about the clearance issues. Mounting it backwards on an open bench doesn't really effect temps and was better than not giving us results.
Numb nuts put the damn thing on backwards. Of course it has memory clearance issues when its on backwards.
I'm just flabbergasted. I could do a better review in my sleep.
