Detailed how to Install the Cooler Master Hyper N520 Heat Sink and Fan

In this tutorial I give a detailed tutorial of how to properly install the Cooler Master Hyper N520 heat sink and fan onto an Asus motherboard and AMD APU. This same process would go for any AMD CPU and would only be slightly different for an Intel CPU.

And i assume Daaenniek is a regular Picasso, everyone's a critic. As an update, my setup has run cool and nearly silent since install.

No, Meothui22 isn't trolling at all.

By strategically places the boxes so that it can safely support the mobo and leave a pocket to put a back plate on, you work with the mobo right-side up the whole time. The only small disadvantage is that you have to "feel" your way on putting the back plate on with the nuts.

@coppertrial Good Idea, wish I though of that!

This video (and the other one) shows how not to apply thermal grease. You should never try covering the whole thing, stick to a small drop in the center, or maybe a small dash if you know the orientation of the cores (google arctic silver manual). This excess grease harms heat dissipation, and don't bother spreading, it occurs naturally and evenly when put together.

Also watch it with the gloves, skin oil does nothing compared to harmful static buildup.

I was wearing a grounding wrist strap, sooo no static.

I think you should have been able to keep the standard backplate, as the holes are in the same place. Meh :D

My only problem would be to take out the whole motherboard again = (
