I'd stick a 3rd fan on this monster. If you have to overdo it, do it properly

mine just arrived today, it fitted into an Asus P8P67 board no problem,the 4 DIMMS can be used but you must install the ram BEFORE installing the heatsink, only the last Dimm can be install/remove while heatsink is attached.The rams i used are G.Skill RipJawX and their heatsinks are not small.
The installation was a PAIN, and I mean it. I've installed heatsink as hugh as the scythe mugen and other water cool unit but this one is a pain I'll try to explain here.
we all know we have to install a back plate with 4 screws but those 4 screws are build longer so they go through the plate, the board and to hold the heatsink.
so if i line up the plate, put the screws in ,at this stage the screws are still Loose it only goes through the plate and board and doenst grip anything until screwed onto the heatsink .i have to flip the board around and line up the heatsink and more than a few times the screws just falls out.
When you manage to line it up, how do u expect to turn the screw while the board facing up and you're holding 1.5kg + board +ram and screws are falling. If you flip it around so the heatink is down,how do u line up? One has to try it to understand the pain.
performance wise., I will need to finish the system tonight, do a bit of overclocking and post here.
Ok, got my 2500k Sandybridge to 4.3ghz , just initial O/C, not finalise yet.
1.4v , the fan would go to 1700RPM max, u wont hear a thing. Keeps the CPU at 60c which is pretty good i think. Will try to go higher clock later.
