FYI: Be very careful pressing the retention arms for the Asus P4t HSF. It is a piece of garbage. Just snaped off the arm trying to remove heatsink. Did not apply excessive pressure. The idea behind the retainer is great. The quality of the part is not good.

I got to admit It was one of the hardest heatsinks i've put on. It took alot of pressure to push those arms down. Scared me!

I'm ordering a Swiftech MC462-P4. I checked with my vendor and he's sure I can get another mount from ASUS but I don't want that junk on my board.
