How do I uninstall an Intel stock cooler?
Go to solution
Solved by CWALD,
after unplugging your fan, turn the four plastic tabs on the corners 90 degrees and pull them up slightly, then the cooler should lift off. This can sometimes be finicky or might not work at all, in that case turn your mother board over and pinch the 4 tabs with pliers to pull them out one by one. You can get it off by breaking these tabs but you will be unable to reuse the cooler then. (Note: it is a pain, be patient with it)
