1. Does HR-09 Type 4 fit on 680/780/790i motherboards by all manufacturers? If not how will I know if it will fit on mine?

  2. If I¡¦m using Ultra-120 eXtreme or IFX-14 CPU cooler, will I be able to install HR-09 Type 4?

  3. The new 790i motherboards have their own heatpipe cooling system. Will HR-09 Type 4 cool better?

Question :  Does HR-09 Type 4 fit on 680/780/790i motherboards by all manufacturers? If not how will I know if it will fit on mine?
 
Answer : 
HR-09 Type 4 is specifically designed for motherboards manufactured by Nvidia. For ASUS & Gigabyte motherboards, particularly the 790i type, you will need HR-09 Type 2. Each type of HR-09 is made specifically for certain brands. Please check the compatibility list before purchase. The listed motherboards are all certified to work with HR-09.

Question :  If I¡¦m using Ultra-120 eXtreme or IFX-14 CPU cooler, will I be able to install HR-09 Type 4?
 
Answer : 

Both Ultra-120 eXtreme and IFX-14 are ok to install with HR-09 Type 4 as they have enough height clearance. You can install any fan of your choice on your CPU cooler without interfering with HR-09 Type 4

FAQ 3
   
Question :  The new 790i motherboards have their own heatpipe cooling system. Will HR-09 Type 4 cool better?
 
Answer : 
The biggest difference between HR-09 Type 4 and the heatpipe cooling system by motherboard manufacturers is in the fins and heatsink base. While they selected to use adhesive method for contact, we opted to use the soldering method for best contact and heat transfer. Their focus is on appearance thus sacrificing performance. We, on the other hand, focused truly on lowering the heat by the MOSFET.
