    As part of my new build I'm planning on getting the very impressive looking Gelid Tranquillo for the i5 760 CPU. I've read the review on this site, which states:

    http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/2010/01/20/gelid-tranquillo-cpu-cooler-review/2
    Which has got me a bit worried! Is it that difficulat? I've only ever used the stock Intel/AMD coolers before now rather than a branded cooler, so whats so difficult about it?
    I've looked on Youtube for an installation video, but such a thing doesn't seem to exist.

    Has anyone fitted one of these, and was it a headache? Any tips or advice?

    Many thanks :)
