I need a guide with pictures on how to install an HSF!

BTW my paranoia is still here:( How will I know that I have installed it correctly (because Im not gonna take the mobo out. Just doing it while its in the case.)

Longer arm goes on to the lug on the socket where it says SOCKET A and the shorter arm on the clip goes on the other end. You will know you attached it correctly when you try to move it from the top of the heatsink, it doesn't move or barely moves.

not too worried about lug
more worried about core

Okay for some strange reason my chip might not have pads!:eek:

I have shaky hands
