In Figure 14 we can see LOW-7000 R2 installed on our motherboard. This was the hardest CPU cooler installation we've seen to date - and it doesn't even have a backplate! With the motherboard inside the case it is impossible to install the cooler and even outside the chassis it was very complicated to install it, because it is hard to access each clip and we needed to use a big amount of force in order to hear the characteristic "click" when pushing each clip.

Actually the pressure applied on each clip is so strong that our motherboard was severely bent, as you can see in Figure 15.
