Removing the Heatsink
1. Unplug the power cord from the power supply.
2. Unscrew and remove the heatsink screws in the sequence shown in the
picture below.
3. Hold the heatsink and gently wiggle it to loosen it from the CPU. (Do not use
excessive force when doing this!)
4. Once the heatsink is loosened, remove it from the CPU.
5. Clean the surface of the CPU and the heatsink to get rid of the old thermal
grease. Reapply the proper amount of thermal grease before you re-install
the heatsink.
Warning: We do not recommend removing the CPU or the heatsink. If you do need
to remove the heatsink, please follow the instructions below to prevent damage to the
CPU or other components.
Installing a CPU Heatsink
1. Place the heatsink on top of the CPU so that the four mounting holes are
aligned with those on the retention mechanism.
2. Screw in two diagonal screws (i.e. the #1 and the #2 screws) until just snug
(do not over-tighten the screws, which may damage the CPU.)
3. Finish the installation by fully tightening all four screws.
Note: Make sure the heatsink is placed so that the fi ns of the heatsink are in the
direction of the airfl ow in your system.
