Here's a link to the install instuctions from Thermalright..If you want pictures go to www.thermalright.com / look to the left/ Installation/ AMD SI-97.. The most important thing is to get the clip bracket in the correct orientation...See 1st link..

Steps of Installation for SLK-700 / SLK-800A / SLK-900A

Put heat sink on to the top of the CPU die/socket. (Note the step in the heat sink base. The step side goes over the Socket cam box. The other side goes over the lever arm.)
Clip in the heat sink clip to make the three holes fit in the lugs of the socket. (Use a flat bed screwdriver) First attach lever arm side, then the cam box side.
Specs of screw driver: SL - 3/16" X6"

Reverse install procedure...

-_-;;; i've tried...u know there is a "screwdriver hole" on top of the 3 mounting holes...and i've forced that hole like 1000x wit the scrwdriver...and the heatsink doesn't bulge -_-

Ok...Put the screw drivers blade in the tab that sticks out and pry the handle of the screw driver towards the top of the HS...This should release the clip.

You may want to run the rig to get it warmed up so the HS doesn't stick to the chip..
Use a slight twisting motion before removing the HS..
