FedEx delivered my new fans today. Got 4 low speed Yate Loons for case fans and a Scythe Kama 120mm (here) to stick on the Ultra 120. I've already cut the poles out of the middle of the fan so the clips would fit.
I can't figure out how to place the clips to hold the fan to the heatsink, though
Pics of heatsink are at here. Since the top of the heatpipes are layed out the same on each side (rather than opposite to make it symmetrical), I can fit one clip in on one side, but the clip on the other side doesn't match and I can't figure out how to make it fit properly so it holds the fan on on the other side. Anybody with same HS explain how you attach the fan on both sides?
EDIT:
Now thinking I may be stupid... I was attempting to use the holes next to each heatpipe. I should be looking for a hole in the middle of each side on the edge of the heatsink I think...
