1.
Preparing the motherboard:
Remove the stock heatsink retention frame (the black plastic frame that
clips down to your motherboard). This will reveal the four mounting
holes used to install the MCX4000-T retention standoffs.
Install a standoff in each one of the holes. Diameter of the mounting
holes is much larger than diameter of the standoff stem: keep the
standoff approximately centered in the MB holes, and secure them with
hex locknuts, and a fiber washer on backside of the MB.

Use a ¼” socket tool to drive the standoff, and a small pair of pliers to
