2.4 Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink
Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 CPU requires larger heatsink and cooling fan. Thermal grease
between the CPU and the heatsink is also needed to improve heat dissipation.
Make sure 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, see pages 7 and 8, No. 3). For proper installation,
please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of the CPU fan and heatsink
vendors.
