Hi,
I've just bought a Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 64 to sue with the new AMD 4200 X2 S939 CPU I've just bought. Before I start ripping my systen apart I have a couple of questions, please?
1. The Arctic info talks about a 'Retesntion Plate' on the motherboard. I am currently using a stock AMD cooler that came with my AMD64 3200. Will this be fitted to the same plate? Do I just need to remove the existing fan and fit the new cooler to the same fitting?
2. Do I need to remove the mobo from the case to do this? It's a faff taking the whole thing apart but obviously I don't want to force it.
Probably basic questions I know but I just want to get it right!
Cheers
Andy
