Do not apply any thermal grease to the
heatsink or the CPU die; the required
amount has already been applied.
Place the heatsink on top of the CPU
so that the four mounting holes are
aligned with those on the retention
mechanism.
Screw in two diagonal screws (ie the
#1 and the #2 screws) until just snug (-
do not fully tighten the screws to avoid
possible damage to the CPU.)
Finish the installation by fully tighten-
ing all four screws.
