More like the cooler that will break your mobo tray.

Thats insane

Will stick with my Katana2 unless this Coolermaster cooler works as good as it looks. Will keep you posted should have a review done in the upcoming weeks on the Hyper 212

Hahah! Even horizontal cases won't be able to take this cooler because of their slimmer profile versus tower cases

It's fine as long as you mount it with a backplate

Eh, I don't think the motherboard can stand the weight even with a backplate...

WEAK!

LOL joking

Well it's not like you are shaking/bumping the case around. I don't see why 1KG can be a problem if it is mounted securely with a backplate. Orochi isn't the first 1KG CPU cooler, remember Hyper6?

oh crap.. if i install that, i need to remove the fan bracket on my cm stacker.. dont even know if i can put on the side panel .. LOL ... but i'm sure my graphic card will break as well if that thing falls on it.. LOL ... probably have to install the motherboard with the cpu downwards like BTX style.
