my new am2 processor just came! i opened up my case took out my old heatsink to find that there was no retention bracket on my mb!!! the old cpu is an am2 athlon 64 x2, and so is the new one, but the new one i got requires you to clip the heatsink into a retention bracket, on my old heatsink the whole thing just screwed into the MB! here is a pic of my MB without the heatsink in..
