I recently purchased this heatsink + fan for my new computer. However, I cannot continue with the construction of said computer because it is impossible for me to install this heatsink. The unit itself sits on two support clips that goes through the holes in the retention guide. One of these clips is the perfect size, the other is too wide. I've tried everything but cannot get it to go through the whole without breaking the retention guide.
Simply can't believe that they gave me a support clip that was too big...
Someone tell me I'm stupid and doing something wrong, and it will actually work. I really don't want to send it back in and wait for a new one.
