I think there is something wrong with the metal olders... they are the same..... shouldnt they be 1 left and 1 right side?

My bad they are correct, just have tup put one upside down

The ends of the metal go to the holes in a way that the midle of the metale clip on the heatsink!

There should be cut out's to where a fan could be mounted in the actual fins of the heatsink. If there isn't..... : {slightly trolling} Get a stapler. And go to town {just kidding}

Thanks!

You have to put the ends of the clips into the screw holes on the fan, then clip the fan to the heatsink.

And ofcourse make sure the fan blows in the direction of the back of your case.

I am using the be quiet! PURE ROCK, and it has godawful instructions.  I do not know how to clip the clips onto the fan, and I need help.
