I have an SLK900u on a P4 3.0C and I was wondering what method of retention I should use.
For p4s there are two:
You can use the metal clips and just use the plastic square around the CPU, or you can use the spring loaded screws and the bracket that comes with the HS on the bottom of the motherboard.


Is there really any difference? Or is it just what ever is easier?

Thanks,
DC
 
I think you're also supposed to use the screws if you use a fan larger than 8cm, also because of the weight.
