Corsair H50 Liquid CPU Cooler

Nevermind. I bought one anyway, doesnt fit gpu.
Doesnt fit the case either. Should of checked this first... only room for 80mm fans, not the 120mm that this comes with.
Now I have an excuse to upgrade my case

Another H50 aspect to consider...

... how the heck do you remove this thing? I'm pondering the replacement of my i7-920 (it tops at 205 BCLK) with a i7-970, but the Corsair is in the way. I did not install it, I bought the rig ready (because it was a great deal.)

The H50 keeps temps in the 50's-60's for usual work at 4.3 GHz, but two days ago there was a brief near-80 peak, RealTemp says. So even trust-wise things are starting to change... hmmm.

If you are asking how to remove the H50, there are 4 screws. 1 on each corner of the ring that attach the ring to the baclplate. Remove them and twist it off. The fans are attached with 4 - 1 1/4" screws on each corner that screws the fan to the radiator. Unscrew them and the fan and radiator will come off.
