I broke the clip that firmly keeps the heat sink to the cpu. Stupid
instructions are not very detailed, I realized only after that I should
press down in the middle to expand it so that it will fit into the
motherboard frame holes. Anyway do stores sell this clip? How much
does it cost?

Click to expand...

Check EBay. I bought one for a customer there. Intel refer to it as a
retention unit. I presume that's what you mean. Like the one in the pic
here:
