Big Typhoon Installation Problems

[DeadlyAura]

I just got a big typhoon yesterday and installed it.

With the instructions, it says that with a 939, you can use the original mounting bracket and the screw provided to screw it down, however, the screws are too sort.

I can't use the bracket that they provide because it is an H style barcket that will crush the resitors and stuff directly behing the CPU.

I ended up uing some washers and the P4 application to mount it. Put the washers on so the other screws wouldn't pull through, threw in some standoffs and used the provided nuts on the top to tighten it down.

Anyone else ever install this on a 939 and how the hell did you do it?

A picture of your installation would be helpful.

Ya, what he said...


crush your resistors and stuff behind the cpu... ???? I never thought the "H" plates that came with ThermalTake products were bigger than the CPU mounting area.... odd.

we need pics!!!!
