regarding the xigmatek cpu coolers...

[johndoe3344]

So I have the E8400 from the box and I bought the xigmatek cpu cooler and retention bracket. Sorry if this sounds like a ridiculous questions, but do I install both the stock coolers/heatsink and THEN the xigmatek coolers/heatsink? Or is it one or the other?

It is one or the other.
Xigmatek yes - stock no.

Yeahhh...that is a ridiculous question that I would think most people would figure out on their own. But seriously, just the Xigmatech one; you can keep the intel one in the box and leave it alone.
