Looks like a pretty good heatsink and i like the idea of having the fan inside that tower but it does beg one question. If the fan dies is the heatsink garbage ? It doesn't look like the fan an be replaced in it.

You can use any 120mm fan inside the Tuniq. The top panel of the heatsink is what the fan is attached to. Unscrew and pull that out, and you can do whatever you want with the fan.

Hes right. Any 120mm can fit in there and you dont even have to remove the tuniq from the board into to replace the fan.

I use a 105CFM YS-Tech with it myself.

You can put any 25mm thick 120mm fan in it.

Heres a nice one. It has 9 blades and an included controller like the stock fan but it's stronger.

That's what I'm running in mine. Seems to be a little bit better than my big typhoon with the same fan.

Ok guys.....
I dont' know if this has been asked before? But with this Tuniq 120 cooler, do you screw the tentions screws all the way down, as far as they will turn, or just when it feels shug on the cpu?

Thanks

Only tighten it until you see the mobo start to bend slightly. Once this happens you are not going to get it seated any better to the CPU...maybe worse as the board bends.

jimmsch,

Thank for the information. I didn't think you should tighten all the way.
