The heat sink base features a step which should be placed over the
socket’s cam box as shown in schematic to the right.
•
Place the heat sink fan assembly onto the CPU making sure that the clips
hook to the tabs on each side of the socket. Should the factory setting be a
little short, do not attempt to force the heat sink down by rocking it one side
or another. Simply screw clockwise until the clips hook onto the tabs.
•
Then, turn both screws counter-clockwise until the head of the screw
clears the top of the clip by approximately 1/16” (1.5mm) as shown in the
picture below. As soon as the head of the screw is no longer touching the
top of the clip, the spring is under full tension.
•
Note: Should you disassemble the mounting screws and compression
springs for any reason in the future, please note that the springs are of
unequal length. The short spring goes on the side of the heat sink that
features a step in the base, whereas the long spring goes to the opposite
side (see assy. schematic on page 1).
•
Finally, connect the fan power cord to the power supply.

III. Final inspection
Now that the heat sink is installed, startup your computer, go into the BIOS and observe the CPU temperature. Under normal ambient
temperature conditions, the processor temperature should never exceed 60
°
C (140
°
F). If it does, shut down the computer immediately, and
review your entire installation. Troubleshooting help is available on our web site at
