Question 1

was realy just wanting to know how this goes into my system,, the cpu cooler i have in there now has to clip that goes on both sides can i also just use a clip that goes on both sides for this one aswell?

Accepted Answer

In the fourth picture provided by Newegg, mounting brackets are shown which screw onto the base of this cooler and then attach to the mother board.  The pair of brackets with black push-tabs are used for Intel processors and the oblong bracket with a metal tab at each end is used for AMD processors.

With the correct bracket(s) attached, this cooler will attach in the same place as the original cooler.  The bottom of this cooler also has thermal paste pre-applied.  All that's left is to plug the fan cord into the motherboard.

Question 2

about how tall is this cooler?

Accepted Answer

92 mm

or 9.2 cm if it's easier.
