Embodiments herein relate to torque controlled drivers to simultaneously drive fasteners to secure a thermal transfer device to an integrated circuit package. In various embodiments, a torque controlled driver may include a gearbox, a driver with a torque controller and a motor with a rotating shank, a motor gear coupled concentrically with the rotating shank, a bit drive gear in rotational engagement with the motor gear to drive a bit sized to drive a fastener to secure a thermal transfer device to an integrated circuit package, where the gearbox is to hold the motor gear in a position about a motor gear rotational axis and the drive gear about a drive gear rotational axis such that the motor gear and the bit drive gear maintain rotational engagement as the motor gear rotates. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
