Once seated you can now connect the fan power cable to either your motherboard CPU FAN headers or a FAN controller. So yeah, once the motherboard is out, 10 minutes work maximum, we positioned the cooler and are ready for the first test run.

It is totally up to you how you want to position the cooler and or fan (top/bottom), it really doesn't make a difference spacing wise.

Above the finished setup - an incredible silent product that can even cope with a Core i7 4790K and a nice overclock as well.

I positioned the heatpipe direction towards the DIMM slotts, as you can see, two can be installed like this. You could easily reverse the cooling block of course and then get space for 4 DIMMs.
