Installing the CPU heatsink
The Intel
®
LGA1150 processor requires a specially designed CPU heatsink to ensure
optimum thermal condition and performance.
•
When you buy a boxed Intel
®
processor, a specially designed CPU heatsink
or a CPU heatsink with a CPU fan assembly is included depending on
the package. If you buy a CPU separately, ensure that you use only Intel
®
certified multi-directional CPU heatsink or CPU heatsink with CPU fan.
•
The Intel
®
LGA1150 heatsink and fan assembly comes in a push-pin design
and requires no tool to install while the special heatsink assembly requires
a Phillips screwdriver to tighten or loosen screws.
•
Use an LGA1150-compatible CPU heatsink and CPU fan assembly only.
The LGA1150 socket is incompatible with the LGA775 and LGA1366
sockets in size and dimension.
Orient the heatsink and fan assembly such that the CPU fan cable is closest to
the CPU fan connector.
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.
2.
Push down two fasteners at a time
in a diagonal sequence to secure
the heatsink and fan assembly in
place.

If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, ensure that the
Thermal Interface Material is properly applied to the CPU heatsink or CPU
before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.
Ensure that you have installed the motherboard to the chassis before you install
the CPU fan and heatsink assembly.
