If you are saying I broke the bracket that is not true. But at any rate how it broke is errelivant. Why not have the cooler just attach like the newer ones attach with a pin system? Really one of those would fit if it was over just a bit more. So why would I not think a CPU cooler would attach that way.
How would I know it is a undustry standard? Those are older parts and I never actually bought that motherboard seperately. So how would I know you would have to know where to look to find that info and if you know where to look then you already know the said info. This is not something I have been doing for years.
Also if it does not come with the part why not have the site simply say what that document said? They do not know if the person buying is very experinced in that area. Do you know everything?
Can you simply figure out how to rebuild a engine without being taught how? No and there is not exactly a course you can take to learn it unless you are going to get a job building computers. So most people who do it learned on there own. So it is reasonable to think I may not know.
Ok I once purchased the wrong CPU ok that I took ownership for since that was info I could have found out easy. So I did do allot of research for this cooler. I had to just to find one that even could fit.
I looked at about 50 sites on this info no kidding. Not one of the sites I looked at said anything about the retention bracket comming standard with the board. It was simply something that I did not see it is simple to overlook something as small as that.
I could not even find a retention bracket for sale I knew what it was called. But I was not aware of it being standard with the motherboard how could I? Only way I could have was if I stumbled opon the info.
So the CPU I will admit was my fault this retention bracket thing however is not my fault. I will not take owner ship for something that was not my fault. I did the research and even then I still ended up with the wrong thing.
When I contacted NCIX about the retention bracket they used a PC case for an example. They told me that it is standard for the screws to come with the PC case not the motherboard.
Well I had more than one case that came that way but I did not know it was an industry standard. How would I even look up info like that. You have a job dealing with PC issues all the time so of course you would know that. But you guys have to understand something that you know not everyone would know.
So why not say if parts are needed to help someone out who may not be aware of such info. If you are not aware info exists how can you try and seek that said info?
