Noctua NM-I3 Mounting-Kit FAQs
Help, the base of the cooler doesn’t make contact with the CPU / there is no contact pressure! Please verify that you have installed the fastening brackets correctly:

Is the cooler compatible with LGA1366 mainboards for Xeon 5500? Due to the custom NM-I3 backplate, the cooler can not be used on mainboards that have a backplate with screw threads for CPU cooler installation (such as the Intel reference backplate for Xeon 5500). Please choose our NH-U12DX 1366 for these mainboards.

My mainboard has more than one set of mounting holes. Which one should I use? Please always use the standard set of mounting holes that's compliant with your socket type (e.g. 75mm LGA1156 hole spacing on LGA1156 sockets) and parallel to the sides of the socket. Don't use mounting holes which are rotated in relation to the socket.

I can't open the socket due to the mounting bars! Please first loosen one of the two thumbscrews that hold the mounting bars in place. Then untighten the second screw so that you can swivel the mounting bar and open the socket. Depending on the position of the mounting bars, you may need to swivel both.

10.09.2010 - DreamwareComputers.com NH-U9B SE2
Test verdict: "The Noctua NH-U9B SE2 is the perfect candidate as a choice for a CPU cooler in a HTPC or mATX system. It delivers very good performance even though it has a very small footprint inside of the case, and does so extremely quietly as well. Also, it is backed by Noctua's awesome 6 year warranty, so you can be sure that this cooler will last you a very long time." (Jonathan Wen, DreamwareComputers.com)
