Originally posted by belgario View PostHi,
I recently purchased a set of TridentX DIMMS. I also have been unable to remove both screws securing the heatsink fin. It appears the screws have been over tightened. One came off fine but the other was too tight. As a result I ended up stripping the screw. I haven't even gotten to the stage of sliding the fin off. Now I am stuck with a product that will not fit under the cooling assembly.

Is there an RMA address to send to in the UK?Last edited by soupdragon; 02-25-2015, 08:13 AM.

They're not easy to strip if you use the correct tool.
#1 x 25mm
Of course if you try to use any Phillips crosshead laying around the house and jam it in, there's an easy possibility to strip such a tiny screw..
But don't worry, you're not the only one. You can send them in to have removed, or get the correct tool and do it yourself. Contact the RMA dept. if you would like to send them in.
