Ok I got it installed yay!
It was a pain in the arse though because I had to take the motherboard out and remove the intel retention bracket and put in the Themalright one... not fun. I finally got it in though! And damn did it help.
I'm running the same programs as in my previous posts and my CPU is at 38 Celcius, compared to the old 56 Celcius! 18 degree drop and the thermal paste hasn't even been worn in yet
Thanks for your help everyone and here is a pic of the new setup, it fit in nicely:
(Sorry about the focus =/, CPU is at 36c now haha)
