Mounting

If you want to install the Nirvana on an Intel socket you will need to install the delivered backplate. AMD users will install the cooler using the two point socket attachment. Depending on which socket you have another bracket is going to be attached to the coolers ground plate.

  

By using an Intel CPU it is possible to mount the cooler into all four directions. When you have an AMD CPU the cooler can only be mounted in two opposite directions. Futhermore there is also plenty of space to install memory with big heatspreaders.
