Upgraded my cpu after about two years, this video saved me as I was so lost as to why I couldnt screw it in, turns out I forgot about the backplate lol, if your upgrading your CPU make sure you have someone who can hold the back plate so you dont have to take your mobo out
This week I bought a 5600X and an MSI Tomahawk II Max... trying to fit the CPU scared the crap out of me - nothing made sense. Took me ages to realise I was ok and they had put some very odd blocks in the way. Got there eventually but it was certainly a journey. Those clamps really should be part of the kit, not pre fitted.
@@OdinHardware Sorry, yes it was - did i fail to click the clicky thing? I thought I did. Anyway, yes, useful. There was another one that was really annoying - basically unboxing, some confusion, and suddenly running GTA5... not what I was looking for - I wanted step by step "This is how you build a new PC" stuff. I used to be a global IT manager, but retired in 2008 and have not touched a fresh build since. Things have SERIOUSLY changed since my day. No SSD's, No UEFI's, No auto bios updates, and so on. What you kids consider standard is straight forward weird to me. On that note, I'll be honest - I decided to get drunk today. I I'll go back to the PC tomorrow. I have a few working laptops to get me by, but I'll run out of alcohol in about 6 hours - so tomorrow is looking like a solid run at the build.
@@damightyshabba439 man this might be the best comment I’ve ever read. I hope you enjoyed your day and got your pc built the next day like you planned😂😂😅
Aww man I broke the part that holds the screw. I thought I really have to push it hard. Forgot about the bak plate too. Anyway I think 3 screw will do fine
man just screwing the fan seems like such a better way, those previous amd fans were annoying to set up with that hard to turn knob or whatever. always felt like if i applied pressure it will break lol
Came here to see if there was some kind of foil the CPU because I heard many CPU have these and I wasnt sure if some was on the 5600x. Glad to see I did everything right
Hey just watching videos of this to decide whether I can do it myself. Question: I'm not quite sure what is meant by "retain the backplate" at 2:59. Is that part of the existing motherboard or did it come with the processor?
@@OdinHardware Thanks. Turns out Memory Express (Canada) will install the processor for free as long as I buy (at least) the motherboard from them-which is a nice surprise.
Yeah I agree I think the part where you store away the backplate for later use but then there’s a backplate on the mobo again when installing the wraith is a lil confusing. Awesome video, thanks! 👍
Nice video. Gonna get my 5600X next week and boy it's been a hard wait. Currently I got i7-4770k which is still pretty good, but no match for the 5600X.
@xdayvj i learned about this lol, u gotta take the back part of the pc off, it comes off and then there is a rectangular piece already attached to the pc so just put it in those 4 wholes
Ya'll also get 60 degrees Celsius on idle? I also got 95 on full load. I used to get blue screens from time to time. I re-installed the cpu first removing the thermal paste it came with and applied with a good thermal paste. It gained 15 degrees of difference maxing at 80-81 degrees running the cinebench. So the pre applied paste is shyte I guess. But 80 still seems a lot to me. No?
nice video mate just wanted to tell i recently lapped my 8700k,when i put it back in the mobo i started having RAM issues turns out i tightened the cpu too hard that it caused unexpected issues. now i just tighten the screws on my cpus 80% and it's the same temperature just no risk of damage
@@OdinHardware Once the 5600X is fitted, do we need to go to the BIOS or anything to install it etc? Or will it just work staright away. I already have the motherboard ready for it.
Yeah not recommended to leave the stock thermal paste on the stock cooler. When it came time to remove the stock cooler years later. I ripped the cpu out of the socket. The thermal compound acted like glue. I would say replace it with noctua or mx-4. This is why AM5 latches will be welcome. I actually think amd should of changed to latches over the cpu with b550 and x570. Also really hate the stock cooler mounting system. Such a pain in the butt.
@@jibini7216 I've tried that and the time it takes to remove the stock cooler it is a sticky substance that bonds pretty well to the IHS. Had to use a hair dryer to warm the thermal paste enough to remove the cpu. That has some pucker power for sure.
Totally missed that there was pre-applied thermal paste on there. I added some myself (an X over the CPU). Should I remove everything and wipe everything off, then add again or do you think Im good the way it is? I guess i could have a bit too much on there
When you said the thermal paste is pre applied to the cooler, do you mean you applied your own already, or it came from the factory with paste and it just needs to be installed?
I have different fan on this cpu and put it on existing frame from motherboard and clamps (the ones that were removed). No problems with installation - some people complain to them?
i recently got this and it's running hot on idle (56-61C) and would reach up to 80+ just watching videos. is it possible that the pre-applied thermal didn't work?
I accidentally dropped this specific part on the floor and some of the pins on the edges got bent but none of the pins anywhere else got bent. Is it gonna be okay? I was super upset with myself cause that piece especially was expensive.
When i put my PC parts in a pc builder simulator online it says that i will have comparability issues with my ryzen 5 5600x i want to use the motherboard asus x570 plus but it says something about a BIOS update? what does that mean exactly
The x570 was produced before the 5600x and thus incompatible until you update its bios (basic input output system). Most if not all x570 board has bios flashback function meaning you can update the bios without a CPU by putting the bios in a usb drive, plug it in the bios flashback usb port and push a button. Google how to do it in detail.
@@frafra224 Can I update it after I install the CPU or the PC won't boot up or it will randomly restart and I will have to remove the CPU to update the bios for the first time? since 5000 and still not supported out of the box with the MB.

It comes along with the motherboard. You should retain it for using with other model coolers

The thermal paste on the fan isn’t enough to keep your cpu cool make sure to put a little very little worm in the middle of your cpu

Not really an issue with the stock paste. Any paste that's been on a while will stick
I ordered a 5600 but also temal paste because now i have a better cooler.
The AMD stock cooler makes a lot of noise.
Totally missed that there was pre-applied thermal paste on there. I added some myself (an X over the CPU). Should I remove everything and wipe everything off, then add again or do you think Im good the way it is? I guess i could have a bit too much on there
If the cpu temperature is not bothering you, then leave it.
When you said the thermal paste is pre applied to the cooler, do you mean you applied your own already, or it came from the factory with paste and it just needs to be installed?
thermal paste is pre applied to the cooler
Factory installed
after i dropped my 5600x in and i put the retention bar down there was no pressure, did i just loose 120$?
I have different fan on this cpu and put it on existing frame from motherboard and clamps (the ones that were removed). No problems with installation - some people complain to them?
A beautiful video
What kind Motherboard in the video 😅❤
Do you have to use thermal paste between the chip and the cooler?
It's pre-installed
i’m so nervous to install this..
Stay cool, it's not tough
@ I did it lol
Saludos desde Argentina. Nice video !
Thanks 👍
this is a PRIME A320M-K board right?
Yes
Trying to figure out for an hour why I couldn’t get the fan screwed in……….The backplate wasn’t in 🤦🏾♂️ 😂😂😂thanks a lot!
😀😀👍👍
For installing the stock cooler, do you need to back plate that came with the mainboard?
Yes
A little late to the party but what about the AMD screw that come with it and the retention ring?? Can you just screw it in without these??
Yes,
i recently got this and it's running hot on idle (56-61C) and would reach up to 80+ just watching videos. is it possible that the pre-applied thermal didn't work?
You need better cooler.
Else undervolting will help
@@OdinHardware thanks that's what i got from forums too. getting a better cooler lowered their temp by 10-20 degrees.

You can lift it straight using slim flat device
Do it carefully and patiently
good to know it comes with thermal paste
Yes. It's always with stock coolers
In case you ever need more, toothpaste works well
Is there a driver? I cannot find one for it or do I not need it?
Screw driver you need to have separately
do i take the brackets from inside and put them on the back plate?
Can't get you
does the preappliedthermal paste have plastic film on i t that I need to remove?
No plastic film. just install
is this a tutorial on how to install a new cpu to ur computer?
