Installation

Installation is easy and can be done in a few minutes.
On the Asetek website is claimed that beginners and enthusiasts alike can install the cooler in 30 seconds. I think this is a bit over exxagerated, maybe if you just count the time to put the cooler on the CPU and screw down the screws, but doesn't every cooler take this long to install then?
The manual is very clear about the steps, even computer novices can do it.




Using my big, favourite screwdriver to screw down the screws is very hard because you can't put it on the screws right. I had some success when I rotated the cooler while it was sitting on the CPU, but this usually messes up the layer of thermal paste. Also during installation the cooler tends to move around a bit, so it is hard to get a good thermal paste application.
