what happened to yours?

My one set is still intact Psion.

Need an additional set to mount a fan on the other side, want to see if I can suck the CPU off the board (tic).

No honestly, want to fit a second fan to the cooler as the cpu is running a bit warmer than normal lately. (85 degrees C, still ok?)
 
Ah ok I got the one with the extra fan and it works well. Under full load the cpu is around 70 but this depends on what CPU you have and speeds it is running. 85 is "OK" but too hot for my liking. where with games mine runs around 60
Perhaps the cooler is not seated properly or thermal paste is an issue?

Maybe you could use small cable ties to test another fan.
 
Will do so thanks.
Its a phenom II x4 quad core 955 be. Running stock settings.
 
i have ..a complete cooler...what u have laying around to swop for it? lol inbox me. i tried the dual fans thing...dropped my temp 1-2 degrees..on AMD.
 
Try reapplying your thermal paste in the mean time (the usual cause if your temps suddenly start to rise). Wootware used to have the clips under accessories but I don't see it listed there now. Try phoning a dealer and asking if they can check for you
