ahh yes i've always wondered about that. is that picture showing two brackets (ie one on top one on the bottom) or the same one but from two different angles?

if theres two brackets then i guess there could be an incompatibility problem. but apart from that, i don't see any way it could stop you using a 3 pipe heatsink... as long as the holes are in the same place, and the socket is the same, i really don't see the difference.

another issue might be placement of the mounting holes. on the 4 heatpipe coolers, the holes (that you screw the pushpins or springs into) might be in different places, which would mean physical incompatibility.

you could always just get the TRUE kit though, that apparently works
