So I have installed all my computer components and the computer works fine and stays cool when its on its side, but when I stand the case up the hyper 212 evo pulls away from the cpu on its top side like its tilting forward. Temps go up when this happens. I have tightened the screws to the point where they are starting to strip. What can I do?

Did you install the backplate and use the correct mounts? What motherboard do you have?

Is the heatsink and fans facing towards the back of the case? I've never had this issue with the 212. The only way I could see this happening is if you have it oriented to be blowing to the top or bottom of the case.

Mother board is a x99a godlike gaming carbon (2011-3) and cpu is i7 6800k. Backplate was not needed according to directions.

Umm it needs a backplate to stay in place so....

X99 boards have built in back plates. . 

 

OH Make sure you are using the correct standoff for x99
