Installing the Heat Sink
CAUTION: The heat sinks for CPU0 and CPU1 are different and are labelled
accordingly. They must be installed in the correct location to prevent the
system from overheating.
1
Using a clean lint-free cloth, remove the thermal grease from the heat sink.
2
Apply new thermal grease evenly to the center of the top of the
new processor.
3
Remove the protective cover from the underside of the heat sink.
NOTE: Using excess thermal grease can cause grease to contact the
processor shield, which can cause contamination of the processor socket.
4
Place the heat sink(s) on top of the processor(s) and tighten the four
captive screws.
5
Replace the cooling shroud. See "Installing the Cooling Shroud" on
page 55.
