He used a Celly e1400 with the Stock Cooler...

He still has to push

As Ricanflow said on Xfire yesterday
" I felt that I almost broke the freaking board"

My experience with the push pins has gone both ways. I had no problem mounting the stock cooler and my AC Freezer 7 Pro wasn't to bad either. On the other hand when I was helping zmatt with his new build it took us forever to get the cooler for his e7200 mounted right.

I have found that putting a piece of hard foam under the socket area of the board is the best way to avoid bending the motherboard when you push the pins in.

I am by no means a fanboy, but i prefer Nvidia and XFX cards

If i were looking for the best price/performance, then of course an ATI card would be the best choice.

I'm sorry what?

Ya, I also like xfx for the black pcb. I don't exactly like the ATI red pcb....

Life time warranty... pfft, how long does it take for a video card to go out of date and be no more then a paper weight? Hardly a lifetime.

But theya re good on the "removing the heatsink doesn't void it" and I think they support volt moding also.
