Heatsink PROBLEMS.

[Jaaay]

Ok, my parts just arrived, got the CPU in, but the heatsink is really annoying me, its so God damn big aswell.
The Scythe Ninja..

Ive got two of the white pins through the motherboard, but cant get the other two in, the ones away from the edge of the motherboard.
It seems ive bent one white side of one of the pin thingies.
Im READ THE RULES, NO SWEARING, ENJOY YOUR 48 HOUR HOLIDAY :'(

HELP guys.

Im not sure, but I think your sig is one line too big, I think your limited to 4 lines of text, best change it before the mods notice it.

Does your heatsink stay on? Or maybe you could keep your PC flat untill you get something that fits.

Yeh the heatsink fits.
Using a LGA775 socket.
Just one NO SWEARING white clip is bent and wont go through that bloody hole.
And the space is so tight i cant really do much, i would put the stock heatsink on, but i cant seem to get the clips i put in, out again ;|

Woa mate first off no swearies on here :\

Secondly if you got the pin in just pull it out. Stick the stock one on for a while if you are panicking.
