Installation in socket AM3 is a nightmare!

Cooler Master Hyper TX3 EVO CPU Cooler (RR-TX3E-22PK-R1) (Accessories)

Customer Review

I have already built a good handful of different fans in recent years, but this one was by far the fummeligste.
The problem is that the fan will fit both for Intel as well as AMD Socket, which is why you first have to assemble it out of the box.
The guide is not just good, but with some fantasy, it is no problem to assemble the parts. When mounting you put 2 pieces together. Problem is that these two parts easily dissolve again each other, which made the installation of a nightmare. Again and again the two parts broke apart and I needed several tries, until the fan was finally installed. Real unnerving. Such a thing does not have to be.
The fan is quiet, however, and has the temperature of my CPU significantly reduced compared to the supplied fan. However, I would not buy it because of bad installation dissolved again.

So far very pleased 1 Rank: 4/5
