Removing the Air Baffle
NOTE: Due to the position of the two processors in the chassis, the heat sink of processor 2 blocks
the air from the system fans to the heat sink of processor 1, which results in insufficient cooling to
processor 1. In order to reach the system required thermal performance, the system is designed with
two different heat sinks. Please make sure to install the two heat sinks in the correct position.
To remove the heat sink:
1.
Loosen the two spring-loaded screws.
2.
Lift the heat sink away from the system board.
CAUTION: Place the heat sink down in an upright position with the thermal patch facing upward.
Do not let the thermal patch touch the work surface.
