I bought a mounting upgrade kit from a Noktia cooler. ebay is full of them. Got a backplate. The load on the board is minimal and uniform without bending. I used the knurled fixing nuts from the kit. When installing the cooler, the nuts are barely screwed on literally on two threads. The cooler is easily thrown onto the mounting ring. Then we evenly press the heat sink to the processor with nuts and put on the propeller. Why the whole ""? My friends were talking. I couldn't install a Corona 58 or other more expensive tower cooler because of height problems in the case. The fan is quiet even at maximum speed. The I7 9700K really liked the unobtrusive Intel blue backlight on the propeller. He also likes the cold. Under Aida, the temperature of all cores is not more than 60 degrees during the test for about an hour. Processor without overclocking. Consumes only 140 watts from the network 220, without a gaming video card. Yes, here's something else, the heat pipes on the sole of the radiators are clearly located at the same height as the base. If you attach something even like a razor blade, then there is no gap. Thermal paste is required at the bare minimum. I applied MX4 in a very thin layer.
