Intel Intel Core2 Duo Processor and Mobile Intel GME965 Express Chipset Installing the Heatsink

Hardware Reference

7.While keeping the activation arm compressed, place the heatsink over the pins of the heatsink backplate. Lower the heatsink until the lugs have inserted into the base of the heatsink. Slide the heatsink over the lugs on the backplate pins so that the base is directly over the processor die and the pins on the backplate have travelled the entire length of the channel in the heatsink base. Slowly let go of the activation arm until the base of the heatsink makes contact with the processor die. The heatsink base should be flat on top of the processor die.

8.Plug the fan connector for the heatsink onto the CPU fan header (J2B3) on the motherboard.

Note: The CPU fan header (J2B3) is a 3-pin connector. This is a change from the Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset Development Kit which has a 2-pin CPU fan header. As a result, it is not possible to use the heatsink from the Intel® 945GM Express Chipset Development Kit even though the heatsink and backplate are mechanically compatible.
