Heatsink
Installing the CPU Heatsink
Do not apply thermal grease to the heatsink or the CPU--the required amount has already
been applied. Use an Intel-certified multi-directional heatsink.
1. Power down the system as described in Section 2.1 and remove the chassis cover
.
2. Remove the three screws securing the rear tray to the rear of the chassis and set them
aside for later use.
3. Pull the rear tray out from the chassis (see Figure 2-7).
4. Place the heatsink facing inward and on top of the CPU so that the four mounting
screws on the heatsink are aligned with holes on the socket.

5. Tighten the screws evenly and gradually. Do not over-tighten.
6. Connect the heatsink fan wires to the proper motherboard connector (see Section 1.5).
