I'm conducting a little "survey".

Mine did.
The WBK38 stayed on the motherboard as tight as can be for about 8 months (last time I took it off) and all of a sudden the heatsink fell off. Surprisingly my T-Bird 1000MHz didn't fry itself. Nothing was damaged so lucky me. I swear, the clips from GlobalWin's FOP-WBK line of heatsinks are one of the worst.

I am an OC Knight. Are you impressed? You should be!
MY 1.5 pound thermaltake dragon orb 3 fell off, no damage, it's so long it was wedged between some plexiglass i installed to help hold it on. Btw, my case is an antec 1035b, so its got a lotta room, i had to put that plexi on, i was so scared of 1.5 pounds of copper and fan reaking havoc. I fried the dual 1600mp's though.

no!

Now listening to:
Cato Salsa Experience - Hardcore Mama
Never had one fall off. Never heard of one actually falling off until now. I hope mine doesnt, my OC'ed T-Bird would fry in 1-2 seconds with as much heat as she puts off.
