This is a good price for an excellent cooler, runs very quiet with my overclocked i5 6600k.

I did look at this but was concerned with skylake boards being a bit thinner apparantly and some people have damaged thier boards with the heavier heatsinks. This was my preferred cooler on my build and since reading up on this I went for water cooling to avoid putting the stress on my MB.
otherwise would have loved to get this cooler... great reviews!

It isn't the motherboards which are thinner, it's the CPUs themselves. There haven't been any widespread reports of chips bending under large air coolers beyond the initial "scandal" about it, so it seems more a case of a few idiots tightening their cooler with an electric screwdriver or something and bending the CPU that way. I have a Noctua NH-U14S on my 6700K and haven't had any issues.

Isn't this normal price? In any case, it's great. I bought one for my OC'd 5820K, absolutely no need for water cooling unless you're trying for silly overclocks post 4.5Ghz.

I read about that as well.... to be free from this issue I went water cooling.

Still a chance of damaging the cpu when using water cooling... I think its the stress put on the cpu when people over tighten the screws not necessary the weight of the cooler. I have the noctua d-15 cooling my 6600k no problems just tighten the screws until they stop and there should be no problems.

Would have the same problem with any cooler as it comes down to over tightening
