In Figure 11, you can see the clips and the backplate used to install the cooler on AMD socket AM3, AM2+ and AM2 processors.

In Figure 12 we can see the installing clips used on Intel sockets 133 and 775 CPUs. In this case there is no backplate, but you still need to remove the motherboard from the case (unless it gives access to the solder side of the motherboard) to install the nuts that hold the cooler on place. It is not a good solution, because it is not simple nor protects the motheboard from bending.

In Figure 13, you can see the ISGC-400 base with the socket 775 clips installed.

ISGC-400 is not as tall as 120mm fan tower coolers, and so it can be installed into slim cases, i.e., mid tower cases with reduced width, because it is no taller than standard height expansion boards.
