Installation is a little different from many other CPU coolers; first, double-ended screws are secured through the motherboard into a backplate and then two aluminium strips are placed over the other ends and secured by nuts.
The heatsink is then placed onto the CPU (make sure to apply some thermal grease first) and the mounting bracket placed over the top of the base. This is then secured using spring loaded screws which hold the cooler tight to the CPU for a good contact.
Installing the fan uses two wire clips that are very easy to use; just plug in the fan connector and you’re ready to go.
