I was upgrading the processor in my 2+ year old 775 mobosince I wanted to overclock, I decided to use the Ninja Plus cooler I bought 2 years ago but never used since I decided I wasn't going to over clock. Well, the stock intel heatsink/fan with the pushpins is a real pain to deal with on

You might want something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812264007 I have those in my home PC, but on Data Recovery computers I do not use them, because it is difficult to take them off of the drive sometimes. Regards and good luck in your search Tim Lider Sr.

yes I have been plagued by this. The sheathing pulls off the board. If it is intact you can slip it back on, but be careful or you will break a pin. I lost one SATA connector on a top end ASUS board, after a couple of pins broke due to repeatedly falling off the board, straightening pins,and

Anthony, Please rant on! I too, had a tough learning curve with the current/past 775 heatsink/cooler installation. To the point that I am frightened to even try and upgrade the stock Intel hs/cooler that came with my C2D-E8400's (3). It is truly a mess! I do understand the snap-fit,

I said something similar first time one of mine fell off, OVER A YEAR LATTER, and only because I heard of the problem and yanked it off VERY easily. Mine jambed IN THE HOLES, instead of catching the pin lip on the edge of the hole on the opposite side. (I was lucky the holes fit so well...) I

Well, I got sick of the pushpinsso I found me another heatsink fan for a low-profile system...it bolts on from the bottom...not really designed for the Ninja..but I cut off the pushpins and sort of adapted it to the Ninja...right now, it's in the systemnot sure I'm pleased with the

Anthony, Agreed about no living in fear. But, I got my stock hs/coolers to work. And, they work surprisingly well. Shocked I am still. But, I will look at this Scythe alternative. It does look much like I've used before with Alpha and ThermalRight. Best, Duncan On 01/19/2010 17:25, Anthony Q.

I'm not a fan of the retention mechanism either. I actually will now install the HSF onto the board before placing it into the case just to guarantee that the pins are completely engaged. The Intel HSFs are bad enough, but third party implementations of the push-pin approach have all seemed to be
