I have a AMD4000 the fan on the cooler is getting a little noisy. So I have considered getting one of these:

Zalman CNPS9500-LED Aero Flower (Socket 939/754/478/775) CPU Cooler (HS-015-ZA)

However although I have fitted many new PC parts such as GFX, HDD, RAM and PSU. I have never fitted a CPU or cooler. Is it straightforward? Does everything just unclip, wipe old thermal paste off, replace paste and clip new cooler on with ease?
 
Thanks all :) Don't want to remove mobo again (had a disaster last time... I killed it) so any advice on one that is easy and no mobo removal please :)
