Tuniq Tower

[CoolZone]

i want to buy in the next 3 or 4 months a quad core.i want also to buy a tuniq tower 120.what i want to ask you is:will the tuniq tower cooler hurt my motherboard in time because of it's weight or not?

I'm trying to remember the exact spec's. I think the limit is supposed to be 325 and a TT weighs 485. Those numbers probably aren't exact but I think I"m in the ballpark. Its anybodies guess whether it will hurt a mobo. Lots of people use TT's and other similarly large heatsinks. I have TT in my new pc and it truly is massive. I could probably rig up a support for it if I wanted to. I think the people who need to worry about the weight the most are people who move there pc around a lot. Since mine never moves I'm not overly concerned.

I have one on mine and I have no concern of it hurting the mobo. Like ^^^ said I dont move my pc much, but to dust it off once a month.

I wouldn't worry.
