    Hi There,

    Got my new Socket 939 AMD64 3000+ Retail, along with an MSI K8N Neo 4 Platinum the other day. Anyway, its the first time I've got my hands on a socket 939 motherboard/processor, and I'm a bit confused by the cooler installation.

    In the manual it indicates a saftey clip should be on the "arm" of the hold down mechanism for the cooler. But, there doesn't seem to be any such clip?

    Am I missing something?

    Cheers
    Joe

    ?

    Thanks for your help. What the problem is though is that my Stock cooler seems to be missing the bit that goes over on of the lugs at the side of the socket (or the saftey clip, as the manual calls it).

    Anyone else found this?
