bless you most people skip over this and I was starting to worry that I was missing some baackplate screws- I just had to press a little harder so the screws would catch! thank ya!

Very important note when installing the stock cpu fan: there is only one way to install it which is by applying pressure on the back plate of the mother board ( black metal plate found behind the motherboard) then start screwing and applying pressure starting from top right corner then bottom left and so on. Do not screw one screw at once try equally distribute it. thank me later 😉

One of the most straightforward and informative installs. Thank you for the simplicity and explanation in terms we all can get. Bravo!

[garchomp]

Absolutely brilliant from you. I was struggling to engage all the screws for my cooler. You saying to engage a couple of threads in each screw before fully tightening everything was a life saver. Thank you.

I love how straight forward you are and right to the point. Now it has been years since I built a system and this was a great refresher. Nice job.

[justonkehr]

thank you so much! I was worried pressing down on the screws would be bad but this totally helped and it made me feel a bit better about my first build!

I am gobsmacked that you only have 2000 subscribers. This video is clear, informative, and you're a very friendly and welcoming host. Thank you for this! You just earned another subscriber.

I never installed the screw type fan before and wanted to make sure i was going to do it right. Thanks for the vid that went straight to the point and was well done.

[Ricky-cejo]

Subscribed my friend, my first PC build is in the works and you are the best I've found who explains the fine details

[OldSnake]

What a great video!!! Really helped with my wife's new build as it didn't have the latch CPU fan like the Ryzen 9 3900X, and the instructions on the MOBO manual didn't have instructions.

[matthewcoleman]

Helpful vid mate. Cheers from an Aussie fan.

[lexidecimal]

Thanks for this. Super simple fast and helpful. Really wanted to hear about how tight to make the screws... noted can't overnighten. 👊😓👍

old timer here.. probably building my 13th or 14th computer, but it's been a long time and haven't dealt with am4 at all, so this helped to confirm my assumption that the brackets needed to come off. good, straightforward, helpful video. thanks!

[kaframanaricheta]

Thank you! I was getting CPU fan error, then I watched this video and learned a few things!

[Niicko]

Im building my first pc ever and im really excited, thanks for the tutorial, it helped a lot!

[APaper]

Great video, will definitely refer to this later on, after reading comments I feel very lucky to have access to the backplate through my case back panel

[windowswhistler]

I subbed because this video got straight into the topic without a single second of intro, and was very helpful and detailed. Thank you very much for this video.

[randomjapaneseword]

Thank you for everything and thank you for encouraging me. My hands are shaking little much than yours due to my Neurological disease and I was planning to call my friend to get my cpu installed but now, I think I can do that myself.

[Death_Metal_Head]

I couldn’t figure out why the wraith wasn’t screwing in and I hadn’t realized the back plate came off! Lol. Thanks!!

The last time I built a PC it was with a third-generation Intel i5 CPU. Those stock coolers were absolutely garbage - crappy plastic pushpins that basically disintegrate themselves if you ever need to take the cooler off. These Ryzen coolers are a godsend compared to those, and I love that a backplate is standard hardware instead of something reserved for aftermarket coolers. Good stuff, and great guide.
