[SOLVED] What do I do if my CPU fan wont screw back in?

[matthew.garciia]

(PC NOOB HERE) Recently I acidentally removed my heatsink/cpu fan by pulling because it wasnt coming out. When I pulled only two of the bottom left and right came out but I cant put them back in the holes anymore. Now my PC is slower in-game and the fans are loud. any solutions?

Uh, so did you put the fan back on? Did it break the threads on the screw? Are they the type that screw in or just clip in? We require more details

And the other questions? Also, what twists to remove? Are you talking about screws or the CPU cooler itself?

the intel heatsink cooler fan with twistable screws in the corners

If you warped the cooler, you'll need to buy a new one. Either it's warped or you've reinstalled it incorrectly; what you've described are symptoms connected with an improperly connected cooler, causing the CPU to heat up and throttle to keep from dying.

What CPU are you using? Anyways, the Intel CPU cooler is bad. I plan on getting a Noctua CPU cooler like this one to replace mine: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B009VCAJ7W?psc=1&th=1&linkCode=gs2&tag=pcp0f-20

Stop running the computer if u only have 2 of the 4 connected, you are damaging your CPU, it will be overheating straight away, as people said, they are worthless junk they never play good, you can get a great cooler for under $40
