3.5 Installing the Fan Heatsink
Use the following instructions for installing the fan heatsink:
1. The heatsink has a thermal interface material attached to the bottom, shown in Figure 3-10. Do not
damage the thermal interface material while installing.
2. Align the fan heatsink and slip assembly (A in Figure 3-9) with the retention mechanism (the fan heatsink
is symmetrical) and place it on the processor (as shown in Figure 3-10). Allow the heatsink base to compress
(without rotating or twisting) the thermal interface material over the surface of the processor’s integrated heat
spreader.
3. With the clip levers (C in Figure 3-9) in the upward position, push down on all four clip frame corners (D in
Figure 3-9) to secure the clip frame latches (E in Figure 3-9) to the retention mechanism hooks (F in Figure
3-9), as shown in Figure 3-11.
Note: Make sure the processor fan cable is free from any obstruction and is not trapped under slip frame (B
in Figure 3-9)
4. Close the clips levers in the opposite direction, one at a time (levers require force to be completely closed),
as shown in Figure 3-12a, in the same time, hold the topside of th fan heatsink with your other hand, please
refer to Figure 3-12b.
Note: It is important to prohibit the heatsink from rotate or twist on the processor’s integrated heat spreader.
Securing the fan heatsink while closing the clip levers will prevent the thermal interface material from
damage and the processor will operate correctly.
5. Close the clip lever (2 in Figure 3-12c), while holding the topside of the fan heatsink with your other hand
(B in Figure 3-12c).
6. Once the clip levers are closed, verify that the heatsink is securely retained and that the clip frame latches
are properly engaged with the retention mechanism hooks.
7. Lastly, connect the processor fan cable to the motherboard fan power header (Figure 3-13). Consult the
motherboard manual to determine the correct fan header to use.
