I am trying, very patiently, to install the hyper 212 EVO. I've been trying for about 4 hours.
I have the backplate on and apply thermal grease. When I try mounting it, the little metal spreader that is supposed to go into the stands NEVER lines up with the screws in the holes. No matter how I spread it, it doesn't seem to work.
Worse yet, I always wind up accidentally lifting it while trying to adjust the spreader, which means I have to re-apply the thermal paste. I am running out of thermal paste.
Is there some special way to align it? It really seems impossible and it's driving me so crazy that I'm shaking from nervousness.
