I didn't have any trouble with it. It mostly depends on the case you're using. With a 750D it should be easy, but remember to read the manual. Putting in large heatsinks can sometimes he harder than an AIO kit.

Don't worry, You'll be fine. Just don't cut off the plastic on the backplate :)

Easy as pie, you'll be fine. The only thing I can think of is remember to position your fan orientation correctly (push or pull or both) and make sure the cords for the fans themselves are oriented in the area that's most conducive to cable routing/connecting.

The AMD mounting solution was kinda terrible, but the bracket for the intel cpu looked a lot easier when I installed mine :P Should be easy, just be careful taking off your old cooler, make sure to clean it off good so the pre applied thermal paste on the H100i makes good contact on the cpu :)

I had a bit of trouble, but I accidentally put the back plate on the wrong way.

 

Twice.

 

Yeah, yeah instructions...

I can be a cynical a**hole at times. I apologize if I cause any offence at those time. I also occasionally have issues communicating my point. Extreme introversion + Photographic memory + Some other things.

easy really depends on your level of skill.


 


can you do minor house hold repairs? tighten a door hinge change the filter in the furnace that sorta thing, then yes its easy.


 


 


if your coat has your name and address written on it and your shoes are Velcro, maybe its not so easy.
