Installing the Heatsinks
We recommend the use of active type heatsinks (except for 1U systems). Use any
onboard fan header for the CPU's heatsink fan. To install the heatsink, please follow
the installation instructions that are included with your heatsink package.
Note: Make sure the heatsink is placed so that the ns of the heatsink are in the
direction of the air ow in your system.
3. Align pin 1 of the CPU with pin
1 of the socket. Once aligned,
carefully place the CPU into the
socket. Do not drop the CPU
on the socket, move the CPU
horizontally or vertically or rub the
CPU against the socket or against
any pins of the socket, which
may damage the CPU and/or the
socket.
4. With the CPU inserted into the
socket, inspect the four corners
of the CPU to make sure that it is
properly installed and ush with
the socket. Then, gently lower
the silver CPU retention plate into
place.
