Installing the CPU fan and heatsink assembly
The Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 LGA775 processor requires a specially designed heatsink
and fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and performance.
• When you buy a boxed Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 processor, the package
includes the CPU fan and heatsink assembly. If you buy a CPU separately,
make sure that you use only Intel
®
-certified multi-directional heatsink and
fan.
• Your Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 LGA775 heatsink and fan assembly comes in a
push-pin design and requires no tool to install.
If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, make sure that
the Thermal Interface Material is properly applied to the CPU heatsink or CPU
before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.
To install the CPU heatsink and fan:
1. Place the heatsink on top of the
installed CPU, making sure that the
four fasteners match the holes on
the motherboard.
