Zitat von »Remayz« basically, the screws "deform" the coldplate to make it match the CPU IHS. The CPU is never perfectly flat, so the screws are here so you can bow the cold plate to make it fit as closely against the CPU as possible. typically an IHS is somewhere between flat and slightly concave. the Vario allows you to make the coldplate convex. The setting will vary from CPU to CPU, there's not two identical so you'll have to experiment. thanks thats a good explanation. 10.1.3

Has anyone played with the vario screws yet on the 5000 series, there seems to be no information on the net and Im trying to understand what the screws do. Do they slide the block down left right or what. Does anyone have a visual of what each screw does thats better then the instructions that came with it, at least to me they seem really vague? 10.1.3

Yeah I had a hard time believing it as well but they did forget them despite there strong reputation, There is literally zero instructions when it comes to placing the heatpipe in the terminal I was very careful putting it in and it leaks a fast drop from the terminal.
