Intel heatsink install questions (Arctic Cooler 7 Pro)

[marcosscriven]

Hi

Pretty sure about this, but just wanted to confirm.

In the manual for both the stock cooler, and the Arctic Cooler 7 pro, it says to push in the four clips (opposite corners first), and THEN turn the clips to lock.

However, I think they are already in the locked position, as when I turn them, they un-lock. And they don't turn any further the other way.

Plus it as seems pretty secure, not falling out at all.

Just wondered, as the manual is a little confusing in the matter.

yes the manual is double dutch...

turn the pins in the opposite direction to the arrow, and push into the mobo, when you want to take the heatsink off turn the way the arrow points and it will relaese the clips....
