Tuniq cooler.... wow - Questions!
Alright this sucker is a monster. haha. I heard you guys say it was big, but I didn't picture it as 10 times the size of my previous cooler. I'm hoping it fits... However I think it will. I have a few questions.
1st. There are 3 sets of instructions. P4, K8, and 3.775. What do I follow? What do they means? 2 of the instructions require me to take out my motherboard which would be a major pain.
2nd. There are wires everywhere. Does it matter if some touch the heat sincs? I know they're hot, but I don't know how I could get around it.
3rd. How do I know which side the fan is shooting out. That way I can direct the hot air to an exhaust.
4th. I have a fan directly above the tuniq cooler. It's a 120 mm slot. Would it help cool it a lot? I see a plate on top of the cooler so I don't know how effective it will be.
5th. My stock cpu has a 4 prong slot and a 4 prong slot on the mobo. The tuniq has a two prong slot.
