    Sorry for multiple post im on phone and keep thinking of questions lol
    NP, You could try one corner of your Intel push-pin cooler to see if it fits, don't force it in. The hole will probably be too small though if there is a backplate installed.

    If its not to late to cancel then i would recommend something like the XIGMATEK Loki. On the test i linked to on the other page, it performances 4C better then the Zaio and also uses a 92mm fan; this design also allows you to upgrade just the fan to a higher quality one if you choose to do so at a later time.

    The only drawback to that particular HS is the TIM application, the popular pea method won't work with direct heatpipe HS. Jelly would have to make sure to use the horizontal line method with it and avoid AS5 with it at all costs.....that crap is hard enough to spread on flat base HS, it's a nightmare with direct heatpipe ones.
