Hi, is this really happening?

Won't happen if you take care, but if you really want to bend it then yeah, it will.

Installing a cpu cooler with an electric screwdriver?

I was planning on installing the Prolimatech Megahalems cooler tommorrow on a 6700K. It's very big and heavy so I got a bit paranoid.

Tighten the screws with an ordinary screwdriver. You'll soon feel when it's time to stop. The megahelims has an excellent bracket system that offers great support and rigidity for the cooler.

Ouch. Poor quality materials or what?

If I decide to use an impact driver to tighten up a bolt on my bike that holds the fairing on and the fairing cracks that's not poor materials that's being a ****ing idiot and using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Same as using an electric screwdriver in this instance.

Electric screwdriver?

(Installing a CPU for dummies)

Lesson one: DO NOT USE AN ELECTRIC SCREWDRIVER!
Normally that goes without saying but because you're a dummy....
