Hello Folks!

 

Ever since the mounting system of my H80i broke (don't ask), I wanted to make a ghetto mounting system.

Now, what I would like to know, is if this would work: (Dem Paint skills.)

Feel free to ask questions, if for whatever reason you don't understand my drawing :P

Let me get this straight. You're trying to mount the radiator to the CPU? That's not going to work since the radiator is where the heat is dissipated.

let's just say, you shouldn't try to mount a H80i if you're angry.

becasue that isn't needed, I just need to know, if I could mount the H80i with only a backplate, 4 screws, 4 springs, and 4 nuts. ^^

And the backplate.

It should work fine. Just be careful not to over tighten.

Depends on how good your ghetto mounting skills are, but I'd just spend the $10
