CPU Fan Installation
Your Socket A processor kit comes with a cooling fan. Mount the fan on the
processor according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer. The fan is
a key component that will ensure system stability. The fan prevents overheating,
therefore prolonging the life of your CPU.
Note:
Remember to connect the fan to the appropriate power source.
CPU Fan Mount Procedure:
To prevent scratch or damage on the
motherboard, please follow the instructions on how to mount the CPU fan properly.
1. Apply thermal paste to the die of the CPU.
2. Make sure that the retaining clip is in this position before trying to install the
heatsink. Notice that the clip is
not
symmetrical. The long end always
attaches to the top of the socket (the end that reads “Socket 462”), while the
short end engages the bottom of the socket. No matter which heatsink is used,
the clip is always installed in the same manner.
