Step 1-2: CPU Cooling Fan Installation
1. Fasten the cooling fan supporting-
base onto the CPU socket on the
motherboard.
Before installing the CPU cooling fan, adhere to the following warning:
1. Please use Intel approved co oling fan.
2. We recommend you to app ly the thermal tape to pro vide b etter heat
conduction between you r CPU and cooling fan.
(The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the harden ing of
the thermal paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cool-
ing fan, you might pull the processor out of the CPU socket alone with
the cooling fan, and might damage the processo r. To avoid this from
happening, we sugg est you to either u se th ermal tape instead of
thermal paste, or remove the cooling fan with extreme caution.)
3. Make su re th e CPU fan p ower cab le is plugg ed in to the CPU fan
connecto r, this completes the installation.
