1.5 Installing the Pentium II processor
The following section will briefly explain and illustrate how to install the
Pentium II processor.
You have to attached the fan sink before
installing the Pentium II processor into the
system board.
1.5.1 Attaching the Processor Fan Sink
There are currently two kinds of fan sink. Both of them can be easily
attach to the Pentium II processor module. The new fan sink includes a
new metal retention bracket to hold the Pentium II processor module
more securely.
The Pentium II processor module comes with holes on one side to hold
the clips of the fan sink. The upper set of holes (near the latches) on
the processor are wider and should match the wider ends of the clips on
the fan sink. The lower set of holes are smaller and should match the
narrow ends of the fan sink clips.
