2.4 Installation of CpU Fan and Heatsink
This motherboard is equipped with 1150-Pin socket that supports Intel
1150-Pin CPUs. Please adopt the type of heatsink and cooling fan com-
pliant with Intel 1150-Pin CPU to dissipate heat. Before you install the
heatsink, you need to spray thermal interface material between the CPU
and the heatsink to improve heat dissipation. Ensure that the CPU and the
heatsink are securely fastened and in good contact with each other. Then
connect the CPU fan to the CPU_FAN connector (CPU_FAN1 or CPU_
FAN1_2, see p.22, 25, 28, 31).
For proper installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals
of your CpU fan and heatsink.
Below is an example to illustrate the installation of
the heatsink for 1150-Pin CPUs.
Step 1. Apply thermal interface material onto the
center of the IHS on the socket’s surface.
Step 2. Place the heatsink onto the socket. En-
sure that the fan cables are faced on the
side closest to the CPU fan connector on
the motherboard (CPU_FAN1 or CPU_
FAN1_2, see p.22, 25, 28, 31).
Step 3. Align fasteners with the motherboard
throughholes.
Step 4. Rotate the fastener clockwise, then press
the fastener caps down with your thumb
to install and lock. Repeat with remaining
fasteners.
If you press down the fasteners without rotating them clock-
wise, the heatsink cannot be secured on the motherboard.
Step 5. Connect CPU fan connector with the fan header on the
motherboard.
Step 6. Secure redundant cable with tie-wrap to ensure that the cable
does not interfere with the fan’s operation or contact other
components.
