For being the next series of chips......you'd atleast thing the heatsink manufacterers would get a clue and use a
3 prong clip

There are two screws; one on each side of the retaining bracket that are now tightened to secure the heatsink assembly in its proper position.
So it doesn't look to hook up into the CPU socket anymore .... but to 2 screws that somehow connect to the bottom plate. At least that's how it looks to me after a couple beerz

Huh? did you even read the review? The backplate goes on the back of the motherboard, and the heatsink clip
screws down to it. What's the problem?
