Do I have to drill holes on the motherboard tray so that this heatsink will fit?

I had a look at a review in hardocp and thought that the height between the board and the tray isn't enough to fit the mounting system.

Thanks for the reply.
 
umm no, your motherboard 4 holes around the socket a processor is enough to mount the heatsink and fan. use the bolts supplied and the washers. also check if the holes are grounded if they are not you wil have to add addition washer between the holes, and not all motherboars have the 4 holes around the socket a, but most do. if urs doont, well ur kinda.. f*cked

if you don't have 4 holes around your cpu socket then you can't install this hs. DO NOT DO NOT Drill holes in your MB.

just my opinion anyway.
