Installing the Processor Heat Sink
Perform this procedure to install the heat sink on the processor chip. Refer to Figure 11 while performing this procedure.
1.Orient the heat sink so the thermal grease pad (A) on the heat sink is exactly aligned with the corresponding thermal grease pad (B) on top of the processor chip.
2.With the end of the clamp that has the two slots (C) facing the front of the socket, drop the clamp in the bottom of the heat sink center groove (D).
3.Make sure the end of the clamp with the two slots (C) is positioned just below the top edge of the heat sink and press down on the back of the clamp (E) until it snaps onto the socket tab (F).
4.With the front of the clamp below the top edge of the heat sink, press down on the front of the clamp (G) until it snaps onto the socket tab (H).
