How to replace AMD FX-8320 Stock Fan

JackWills · Feb 3, 2014

Hi,

I've recently purchased an AMD FX-8320, I was aware that it would of issues with the stock cooler so bought myself a Hyper 212 EVO cooling fan. However, I'm not the best techy and I'm struggling to install it. I really don't fancy just trying my luck because I would rather not break my rig. Any tips/websites/tutorials would be great.

Thanks,
Jack.

This video is rather in depth but should explain all you need to know to install your heatsink https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrnWVHdhGJ0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrnWVHdhGJ0

If it is too much of a struggle for you, though should be easy with the links provided above, take the 212 back and get a Hyper T4. It has a bracket that allows you to mount the heatsink in the same manner as the stock cooler.

The cooler master hyper T4 doesn't need backplate to install on an AMD motherboard it is so easy as 123...

Yes, I am probably going to pick up a T4 for my second AMD rig because I am too lazy to deal with the 212 evo. :lol:
