Hello everyone, I hope you're doing fine.
I'm writing this post because I've noticed in many different videos and pictures that the Noctua NH-12UA heatsink was always installed having a specific direction in mind.
What so happens is that I installed my cooler in the exact opposite way, compared to what I constantly see in the internet...
Is this something to be concerned about?
Picture on the left - Random photo I found that has the same direction that mine is installed (contrary to the common pics and vids I find)
