I have a TRUE Copper I want to help suspend to take some of the weight off my mobo in a vertical orientation. Any wire recommendations?
Hey thx that's probably what I'll buy, thx for taking the time to help!
I wouldn't worry about it.
If you install it correctly and the screwage is secure, there should be no problem.
I've never had any saggage problems with Thermalrights and have easily used a dozen.
I wouldn't be stupid enough to mount it vertically.Have you used the copper version of the TRUE? It weighs 1900g. Thats over 4 pounds hanging off a piece of plastic and copper.

That cooler needs to be on a benching rig and nothing else.
Pretty big Typo. I did my research and felt dumb after I bought it. Ya, I noticed their test system was vertical too, that's what made me believe it wasn't a typo. After I read more after I ordered it I realized their mistake was my mistake. I really do like it now that I've seen it in person and won't return though but I am really worried. Plan on buying enzotech copper ramsinks. Also as another percaution, Im buying an x58-ud5 0r extreme for extra 2oz of copper support to help, it also doesn't hurt this gigabyte board that it has the best cooling and thickness of any x58 board.
Or maybe it isn't a typo and they're worried about the hs bending the mobo towards the case in a horizontal setup
