Should I just bend it back alittle or leave it alone?

Wouldn't try to bend it, could crack the heatpipe.

I just did cuz I retro fitted my thermalright 120 extreme and it was hitting the motherboard heatsinks !! I bent it back to almost perfect condition but I still need to try the 120 X again.

:cool: Canon Power Shot A720 IS

These is after I bent the heatsink back, and peeled of the P5E sticker to reveal Maximus Formula :)

I don't have edit either. Have Quote & Report Post but no Edit.

You will only see the edit after you post, and only within a certain amount of time after the post. I think it maybe up to 12 hours after.

Sorry guys :( In the future I will post links instead of pics.
