Note:
1.
Please use Intel® approved cooling fan.
2.
We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat conduction between your
CPU and heat-sink. (The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the hardening of the
thermal paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cooling fan, you might pull the
processor out of the CPU socket alone with the cooling fan, and might damage the processor. To
avoid this from happening, we suggest you to either use thermal tape instead of thermal paste, or
remove the cooling fan with extreme caution.)
3.
Make sure the CPU fan power cable is plugged in to the CPU fan connector this completes the
installation.
4.
Please refer to CPU heat sink user’s manual for more detail installation procedure
