Chapter 2: Chassis Description and Installation Instructions

F. Installing and Uninstalling the Heatsink Mechanism

1. Do not apply any thermal grease to the heatsink

or the CPU die; the required amount of thermal

grease has already been applied.

2. Place the heatsink on top of the CPU so that

the four mounting holes are aligned with those on

the retention mechanism.

3. Screw in two diagonal screws (i.e. the #1 and

the #2 screws) until just snug. (Do not fully tighten

the screws to avoid possible damage to the CPU.)

4. Finish the installation by fully tightening all four

screws.

Procedures: Heatsink Installation

Heatsinks are heavy. Please handle with care!!

*Note: Be sure to use Heatsink # SNK-P0011 for a UP

system, and use Heatsink #SNK-P0007 for a DP System.
