2.4 Install the CPU heatsink and fan
The Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 478/Northwood Processor requires a specially
designed heatsink and fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition
and performance.
When you buy a boxed Intel Pentium 4 478/Northwood Processor, the
package usually includes the heatsink and fan assembly.
IMPORTANT
Make sure that you use only Intel certified CPU heatsink and fan.
Follow these steps to install the
CPU heatsink and fan.
1. Position the fan heatsink
assembly on top of the
installed CPU such that the
fan cable is nearest the CPU
fan connector on the
motherboard (marked
CPU_FAN1).
2. Align one retention bracket
with the rail on the side of the
heatsink. Orient the bracket
such that the locking lever is
on the side of the PCI slots.
3. Snap the hook of the metal
retention bracket into the hole
of the retention module.
4. Follow steps 2 and 3 to attach
the second retention bracket.
