Ready to make the plunge and buy this, and two awesome fans I looked at the specs of the Corsair and found that the fans as far as static pressure, and air flow were better than the "widely recommended" replacements.

I replaced them with two Noctua NF-F12s, which have been running extremely silent, with lower RPMs and better static pressure airflow

The issue is that there is simply not enough downward pressure being generated by the pump onto the CPU when fully seated

Maybe I could get better temps if I bought high static pressure fans

Just keep in mind, that the pump is noisy, and that you will most likely be spending more for better-quality static-pressure fans (I highly recommend switching out the stock Corsair fans for something of better quality).

I used the stock SP120 static pressure fans that came in the box

Also the static pressure fan Max RPM is about 1400

I just wanted a little more static pressure

In order to get the Intel bracket off, you have to apply even pressure around the entire circular metal plate AND twist the bracket in a clockwise direction, and no matter what I did, there was some spot I was missing
