Corsair h100 broken screws.

Hello Corsair!

When i mounted my corsair h100i on asus maximus hero and with a 4770k my screws became bent.
The cpucooler sits on place but little bent to one side.
My temps are still ok 30-40 degress when playing and in full load.

But i need more screws for future mounting. How can i get those?

I mounted the cooler inside the chassis and it was little dark and i had bad ligths so i didn´t saw that i were bending the screws.

Is there any risk of damaging the motherboard?

Here is a picture of the screws.

How can i get new ones?

And could this be an issue, since it looks like more people are bending these screws so easily with only the force by your hand.
Cheers!

Maila Corsair, tror nog de är snälla nog att skicka ut ett nytt kit med skruvar åt dig.

Translate: Mail Corsair, they will most likely send you a new set of screws.

Ingen annan som behöver läsa det så jag valde att skriva på svenska, men eftersom det var ett problem så översatte jag mitt inlägg.

This is exactly the same problem that i have!
I also wrote a post about it yesterday. I wonder if it's better to mail Corsair directly about this of wait for a reply here?

Exactly, BUT the screws are very thin and are very easily bent if the cooler is mounted not straight. It is difficult to mount the cooler straight, especially if radiator is mounted in front of chassis and the watertubes is just long enough to reach the position of cpu on mobo.

Sry for my english. :/ 14 years ago i read english in school. He he

Temps are @ original 4770k with only push mounting on corsair two fans on radiator.

Idle 30 c
Full load: 1 hour 45-50 C each core
On cpu 35-40 C
When playing bf3 35C on each core.

Normal temps?

Well then i need new screws then and remount the cooler...
And u have checked with Coretemp?

Other ppls with stock cooler have higher. Check this thread out...

Citat:

When it comes to load temperatures we fired up Prime 95 27.7 64-bit and saw the CPU core temperature rise to 86C with a CPU total TDP of around 75 Watts. The CPU temperature rose quickly, but eventually the fan profile kicked in and the fan speed increased enough to compensate for the heavy workload. No CPU Throttling was noted with the stock CPU cooler, but with temperatures hitting 86C, we highly advise aftermarket cooling if you plan on doing any overclocking as these new 22nm processors do run warm.

CoreTemp yes indeed. However I have good airflow + good cooling paste. And my stock cooler really is a good ex. Its really quiet so I see no reason to change it. Its wierd that some ppl get that high, they probabl mounted it wrong.

Well try intel extreme tuning utility...
20 mins cpu stress test with stockcooler.

You guys will probably won't notice a huge difference between a stock cooler and the H100 when system in on idle, as it is not that important when comparing CPU temps.. Load temps is what matter to most. The H100's ability to keep your CPU temp better than average when CPU is under 100% load.

Thanks Corsair.
According to my ticket att official Corsairforce, Corsair will send me new replacement standoffs.

I remounted the cooler with the new replacement stand offs and with arctic silver 5 and tinted the bottom off sink.
I mounted them gently and perfectly.
Idle temps are almost same as roomtemp (23) degrees and full load aida 30 mins gave about max 50 degrees.
Corsairs program link2 set to balanced mode with only push original fans.

Intel extreme tuning program 20 min gave temps of 55 degrees.
All this with 4770k @3,9 ghz.
I hope I can hit 4,6-4,7 ghz soon when I have time to OC.
