Installing a Processor on the Processor Clip
The processor must be installed onto a processor clip before it is installed as part of the PHM. Follow these
steps to attach a processor clip to the processor.
Figure 23. Installing a processor onto a processor clip
1.
Position the processor on the new processor clip so that the triangular marks align; then insert
the unmarked end of the processor into the processor clip (see Number 1).
2.
Holding the inserted end of the processor in place, flex the opposite end of the processor clip down
and away from the processor until the processor can be pressed under the clip on the processor clip
(see Number 2).
3.
To prevent the processor from falling out of the processor clip after it is inserted, keep the processor
contact-side up and hold the processor-processor clip assembly by the sides of the clip.
4.
If there is any old thermal interface material (TIM) on the processor, gently clean the top of the
processor using an alcohol cleaning pad.
5.
If the new processor is a replacement, remove the processor identification label from the heat sink
and replace it with the new label that comes with the replacement processor.
6.
Apply new thermal interface material (TIM) (thermal pad) to the top of the new processor.
a.
Carefully place the processor and processor clip on a flat surface processor contact-side down.
