  • palomino(athlon xp) installation- please help

    i have just got an athlon xp and am wondering whether to remove the 4 black sponge pads on each of its corners before fitting the heatsink.(first time i've put a pc together from scratch!)
    is a flower best picked in it's prime or greater withered away by time?
    Talk about a dream, try to make it real.

    Don't Touch Them!!!!!

    Leave them where they are... its to help prevent you from crushing your core or breaking off a corner... as well as to help it sit flat

      Exactly... don't remove them!
