okay, yes, this is a mounting question, I guess I'm just a little slow 'cause even after the search of the forums I mounted my WW wrong( temps of...48.5 full load STOCK, thats DANG high) so yea, just wondering if someone could make an asci art or something, I'll make mine 'n describe why I did what....
okay, my current setup
......mounting....just bottom up, washer, spring, screw down..
....______________........p4 adapter plate
........|...............|......... I put nothin here, nothing made sense
........_________.....
.........*.............*..............just the little studs through mobo, screwed fine
k, now problem with this is that I can't tighten much 'cause if tighten the screwdown on the top of all this, it turns clockwise, the same way all of them do. so if theres enough resistence, the sfcewdown dosn't move, the screw itself does. this DID happen, and connected a transistor...luckily the board wasn't fried, and luckily it was just that one. but I of course am worried. so if it's not to much, can I get the right order plz. I'm putting a new cpu in that can do 3.8 apparently 'n it's all for folding. so yea, if I can't do it right, I gotta hotglue the bottom so I don't fry my board...
thanx for understanding
