David said:Yeah, the thing mounts via 4 holes in the motherboard around the socket;
not a 'spring clip'.
Technically those holes are supposed to be there but with it being so
common to use spring clips some, perhaps most, motherboard manufacturers
don't put them in because it gives a little more flexibility when routing
the circuit traces if the holes aren't in the way.
So... there is no way I would start drilling holes in my motherboard.
No way.
