Windows 10: Broken Heatsink Clip

While cleaning & replacing my CPU & Heatsink, one of the clips on the heatsink holder broke. I looked on Newegg & I can get a new holder set, but how do I make sure I get the right one? Do I search my motherboard name (ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0) / the motherboard CPU socket (AM3+)?

how do I clip out a section of an audio file using movie maker

Hi Charles,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums. I would suggest you to follow below steps to clip out,

1. Click on Start Menu, go to
   All programs and scroll up and click on Windows Movie Maker.
   
2. Click on the Import media button, located along the toolbar.
   
3. Browse and select the audio file.
   
4. Select the play button.
   
5. Click on the split icon located beneath Windows media player at the point in which you want to begin clipping the sound.
   
6. Try playing the clipped track, if you intend to clip further. Select split when you reach the desired stopping point within the track.
   
7. This will create a new track, titled Name of Song (2).
   

Hope it helps

How do I seat a heatsink properly?

Yeah same kinds of thing I've been suggesting to him, great minds think alike!

I think its most likely to be a clip problem, as he's had the same problem on a few heatsinks and on a few boards, so I think somehow he is damaging the clip.
