Clearance Requirements
Your CPU comes with a heatsink mounted on top. To maintain proper
airflow once the upgrade is installed on the system board, the CPU and
heatsink require certain space clearances.
The clearance above the CPU’s fan/heatsink must be at least 0.4
inches. The clearance on at least 3 of 4 sides of the processor and
heatsink must be at least 0.2 inches. All cables (for floppy drive, hard
drive, CD-ROM, etc.) must be routed clear of the CPU and its airspace.
Fan Exhaust
The CPU must be kept cool by using a fan with heatsink. The tempera-
ture of the air entering the fan/heatsink cannot exceed 45
o
C (113
o
F).
The ambient or room temperature must be below 37
o
C (99
o
F).
4. Push the handle down until the handle locks into place. The top
plate will slide forward. You will feel some resistance as the pres-
sure starts to secure the CPU in the socket. This is normal and will
not damage the CPU. However, if the handle is not completely
closed, damage to the CPU and/or system board may result.
