Hey there guys, quick question.
Do I remove the CPU backplate that was supplied with my Noctua heatsink, when I remove the heatsink and motherboard? I'm going to be moving my components over to my new case. So i wanted to know if I have to remove the backplate, before removing my Motherboard.
Or can I just remove the heatsink and leave the backplate attached to the motherboard, then install the heatsink once I set the Motherboard into the new case?
This is my first time installing any components into my case, but i am eager to learn. I am not a total noob. I've just never had the confidence to do any installing myself. So if somebody could clear this up for me, It would be a big help.
Thanks.
