>within 3 months the pull from the heatsink rips the socket from the motherboard, crashes on my RX 480 and destroys the motherboard and GPU
Never again

>No pics
As always, OP is just a faggot kid who doesn't know how to assemble computer parts and mounted the fan incorrectly just to fail on him.
>>59587611
>he doesn't have a cube case where the motherboard goes in horizontally, creating no pull to heatsink or GPU
you brought this on yourself
Noctuas screw onto the motherboard, not the socket. OP is a faggot once again.
Core X series or test bench

Do you not know how Noctua coolers are mounted, or are you just being pedantic about what I wrote?

This is 4chan, it's the other way around faggot.
>>59587611
>I don't know how to read instructions
One of three things must have happened for that to happen
>Motherboard ripped clean in half
>Backplate torn THROUGH the motherboard
>Four screws stripped clean off
The last is the least likely but for fucks sake four screws will hold an average man's weight, Noctua didn't cause this issue.

>>59587611
>He bought Noctua
Kek
>>59587611
