H80i bent standoffs (Intel 1155)


SF6

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

after installing the H80i four or five times I noticed that the rhumbscrews were not perfectly in place. After demounting I found the reason: The standoffs were heavily bent:

I'm pretty sure that I didnt't use excessive force to tighten the screws. However I was a little worried about the cooler plate not being firmly attached to the heatspreader. There always seemed to be a little gap which resulted in subpar temperatures.

 

Well the damage has been done no matter what. So where can I get these standoffs?

 

I've already opened up a case: #6001356

 

Thanks in advance,

 

David
