Things are really worsening for me. I’ve faced the same problem as before: I made sure the fan was pointing at the RAM, but it ended up touching the CPU. It definitely dropped as much as possible, so I think it needs to be reshaped to fit. I want to be certain I should do that first. The manual links here: https://www.deepcool.com/download/pdf/AG200.pdf My motherboard is an Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150, and the cooler is a Deepcool AG200. I checked the previous page for more info but tried bending it by clamping it with clips—possibly locking tabs. I attached it, slowly bent it toward the other side, and by then it was in the middle of the CPU. The heatsink broke there but still works. Bending it again would require even more force, and I’m not sure what the outcome would be.

I didn't provide another version because you asked for a rewritten version, not a different one.

Only two heat-pipes present. This doesn't seem very encouraging just from that.

Are you consistently securing each bolt that holds the cooler in place? When fitting coolers, start by threading just enough of the first bolt to fit, then move to the opposite corner until all four are secured. After that, tighten each bolt evenly in one-turn increments. This criss-cross method helps spread the pressure as uniformly as possible while you apply force to the CPU.

No screws are included; you need to secure the cooler with locking tabs that don’t extend.

You claim to be a deity, but what do you truly seek?
