input needed: shorting issue?

[Dirty Dan]

So my cooler master cpu cooler has brackets that go on the back side of the mobo. With my new case it seems that said brackets are touching the case....is that going to cause shorting issues? :/

Appreciate the advice!

Your CPU cooler shouldn't be conducting any current so I don't see how it could short.

Yeah, it should be insulated all around. If it helps you sleep at night, find a thin piece of rubber and wedge it in between.

Agreed with others - CPU coolers don't carry current (if yours does, there's a critical and dangerous issue occuring), so the contact shouldn't have any effect.

cooler mounts don't carry any electricity.

What case is that?

Just think of it this way:
Now your CPU cooler isn't just the metal heatsink, it's the entire case! (feel free to shove in some thermal paste to make the contact better back there )

cooler master storm sniper. I really like it so far, though the side panels are a little annoying to get on and off. overall design is super solid and well thought out though.

Thanks for the input everyone, I'm all up and running with my new case and 570 gtx.
