Works alright but poorly implemented

The purpose of this heat sink is to leave room for a large Video card or SLI, most SLI users have large video cards many 9 inches and 2 slots wide. You cannot face this away from the PCI slots of cards will be to long so there is only 1 way you can face it away from the CPU. Also the screws shipped with it are long with long nuts to fasten them. This basically defeats the purpose of the heatsink since those screws may stick up far enough to hit parts of your video card. I had to install 1 screw backwards and drill a hole in my mother board tray to make this work. Also the retention system is not that good it can still rotate on my chip. In the end with some modifications it worked but a couple shorter screws and smaller nuts extra in the bag would have saved so much time and made it look better.
