Thermaltake SlimX3 CPU Cooler Review
Installation
Contents
Before installing the cooler, you need to attach the retention clips to the base of the cooler. Those clips are compatible with sockets 775 and 1155/1156. After that, just put the cooler on the CPU (there are plastic washers to avoid short-circuits on the motherboard) and fasten four nuts at the solder side of the motherboard.
In Figure 12, you can check the cooler installed in our computer. Note that it is barely higher than our memory modules.
