Assembling the Processor Heatsink Module
After creating the processor carrier assembly, mount it onto the heatsink to create the
processor heatsink module (PHM):
1. Note the label on top of the heatsink, which marks the heatsink mounting holes as 1,
2, 3, and 4. If this is a new heatsink, the thermal grease has been pre-applied on the
underside. Otherwise, apply the proper amount of thermal grease.
2. Turn the heatsink over with the thermal grease facing up. Hold the processor carrier
assembly so the processor's gold contacts are facing up, then align the triangle on the
assembly with hole 1 of the heatsink. Press the processor carrier assembly down. The
plastic clips of the assembly will lock outside of holes 1 and 2, while the remaining clips
will snap into their corresponding holes.
3. Examine all corners to ensure that the plastic clips on the processor carrier assembly
are firmly attached to the heatsink.
