Xigmatek s1283v DK or CM 212+??

[Atl530i]

Well, I finally found some of those 1156 brackets for my dark knight cooler. Just wanted some opinions on whether it was worth swapping out the CM 212+ for the Xigmatek or leaving the CM in there. The s1283 cooled my Q9550 really good and I have been fairly impressed with the Cooler Master.

I've got the CM 212+ and I've been very happy with it.

Surprise Newegg does not have it yet. It has been well over a month now since the 1156 was released and these guys are the only people that have it in stock.

I'd say screw xigmatek. They didn't respond to my inquiry about the mounting bracket at launch when I asked.

If your 212+ keeps your i7 cool for overclocking, why change it?
I'm going to keep the s1283 on my Phenom 2 and keep the 212+ on my i5.

I too use the 212+ and have no complaints.

You can't really go wrong with either one. I've been using the SI-1283 and it's performed well.

I received that 1156 adapter today and installed it. Works like a charm.
