CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Plus (installation)

Starting my build and already scratching my head.

Trying to figure out how to install this heatsink/fan combo on the CPU. The instructions have little text and I guess they expect you to figure out the pictures but I can't.

Anyone have any experience with this thing?

It's going on an ASUS P55 motherboard with an Intel i7 2.8 chip. I think the number 1153 is important.

Before anyone jumps to the rescue, found this but since it's bedtime, I'll check it out tomorrow.

That video is the official Coolermaster video - you found the right one.

You have a 1156.

Make sure the heatsink compound fills all the irregularities on the heatsink contact area.
