Default Installation

Hey there,

Im planning to install the Samurai Master on a Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3 Board. For this process, i have some questions:

1. What is the optimal position to install the cooler? I mean i saw some pictures where the heatpipes of the Samurai seemed to be quite close to the RAM Slots in some cases!? Because i want to use all ram slots. Or is there no other way to mount the cooler on the board?

In short, is the DS3 compatible?

2. I was wondering if there is a difference in installing the Fan the other way so the air gets blown into the heatsink or the common way, blowing air out of the element. I guess this question is only for old CPU Coolers right? since the addition of heatpipes

Thanks for all anwers

edit: After reading the pdf manual the fan should be mounted face-down
