Place the bare
heat sink
over the CPU as shown in the picture to
the right. The step side should be
located over the socket’s cam box.
Keep the heat sink mounting holes
lined up with the standoffs.

Prepare 4 assemblies
composed of (1) 1 ½”
screw, (2) .230x.096 Nylon spacers, and (1) spring
as shown in the picture to the left. Drop each
assembly in the heat sink mounting holes. While
gently pressing at the center of the heat sink, start
tightening the screws gradually in a crisscross
pattern until you feel that they reach the bottom of
the standoff. A “finger-tight” lock is sufficient.
Over tightening may result in stripping the nylon
hex nut. Conversely, adjustments such as
tightening the screws only partially are
strictly
prohibited
. Such attempts will result in improper
contact between the CPU core and the heat sink,
and result in CPU overheating.

Fan Installation
: Place the fan over the heat sink. The airflow should
be blowing down (fan label facing down). Place the fan guard over the
fan. Tighten the four 6-32 x 2” screws. The fan is equipped with two
connectors: a four pin molex connector which must be connected to
the power supply, and a 3 pin single wire connector which connects
to the MB fan sensor header.
6.
Optional fan rheostat
: a rheostat model # RH070 is sold separately,
and allows to adjust the fan speed. It connects between the fan power
connector and the power supply connector. Please consult your
distributor if you wish to purchase this item. Reducing the fan speed
reduces fan noise up to 9 dBA. It also reduces thermal performance,
and will affect overclocking performance accordingly. It is however
perfectly appropriate for non overclocked processors.
