Stock AMD fans work well! At least they keep temperatures in a reasonable range, unlike the stock Intel coolers. Ick. Thanks, Mike!

Ah the trusty stock Ryzen kewler. Always wanted the Wraith but got the Stealth with my trusty 3600. Had it installed for about a week before swapping out for a Hyper 212 Black and never looked back. Thanks for this instructional video, Mike and Kath :-)

this cooler is the bane of many peoples builds either installing removing or just getting too hot, hopefully the video will be informative and give some of the newbies a bit of confidence when using it

Just seeing this now thank you so muc. you fixed the single problem that was stopping me from using my PC. You earned a new subscriber.

Thanks, even though I had it sitting on top of the box, I didn't realize there was a backplate that was being pushed away.

Very very thorough and helpful. To enthusiasts this is easy but this is the kind of detail that an everyday person needs..especially liked the extra detail on how tight the screws should be and thermal paste application

That lateral twist really saved my ass. Thanks mate!!

Had nothing but trouble with this today! Wish I'd seen your video beforehand. Thought I'd readjust the cooler as I was having issues with it sitting right - as I went to take it off after loosening the screws, it pulled the whole CPU out! The pins look ok, but I haven't finished building yet.. hope it still works lol

So when they are spring loaded, you can screw them down untill they stop? Does this apply to all spring loaded coolers? Such as deepcool tower on an LGA2011-3 ? I hope so because thats what ive done.

Tiny bonus. If the sideways AMD logo on the shroud annoys one, the four screws holding that to the cooler are square form. And can be screwed off, rotated 90 degrees and screwed back in, so that the AMD logo is right side up.

when I did mine, I was kind of scared... you have to put a bit of pressure on the board to get the screws started... scared me, I thought I was going to damage the board. but I got it on... and another thing... I had an extra AM3 heat sink and checked it... it fit the board and could work if I had only gotten the processor. I absolutely love my new rig!
