Hey,
as soon as I got my new setup (switched from S939 to S775) I noticed that the way intel made their mounting system isn't really great. Especially with heavy coolers it all looks a little weak.
So I created my own mounting (replacing the plastic mounting).
As this was the 2nd time I did it (first time was a replacement for my Scythe Infinity) it all looks a little fishy and since I am not really a handy-man I did it on my own way.
Hopefully some of you get ideas from it and might enjoy better temperatures. I didn't want to do the whole mounting again, so I used the stock intel cooler and you will have to use your imagination to visually create the motherboard. (yay crap english since I am dutch.)
I couldn't find a way to keep the plastic mounting alive, so I sort of killed it (you will see it in the movie).
Click for a video tutorial (my first ever so it sucks ^.^)
Idle temps on 3.2GHz (E6750) 17 and 20
Orthos (CPU) load temps on 3.2GHz (E6750) 36 and 37
On 3.6GHz I get 23 idle, 45 on load - on 3.8 I get 26 idle, 49 on load.
