1.5Installing the Pentium II processor

The following section will briefly explain and illustrate how to install the Pentium II processor.

You have to attached the fan sink before installing the Pentium II processor into the system board.

1.5.1Attaching the Processor Fan Sink

There are currently two kinds of fan sink. Both of them can be easily attach to the Pentium II processor module. The new fan sink includes a new metal retention bracket to hold the Pentium II processor module more securely.

The Pentium II processor module comes with holes on one side to hold the clips of the fan sink. The upper set of holes (near the latches) on the processor are wider and should match the wider ends of the clips on the fan sink. The lower set of holes are smaller and should match the narrow ends of the fan sink clips.
