Hello fellows,

I had my computer, which was shipped from USA, just today and the heatsink seems to be damaged after shipped. as far as I know the heatsink shouldn't be moved you need to screw and attach properly. so my heatsink has damaged and when I push it with a finger it moves and due to that the CPU temp goes to 85C which computer auto switches off. Is there anyway that I can re-attach? the motherboard is 1366 socket. I would appreciate if you could like explain me or link with pictures etc. Thanks

ah I see what you are saying but the screws should be accessible near the bottom of the CPU cooler. Here is an installation guide for the LGA 1366 platform http://new.coolermaster.com/upload/download/320/files/LGA1366_InstallationGuide.pdf
