To install the CPU heatsink and fan:

1.Place the heatsink on top of the installed CPU, making sure that the four screws on the heatsink align with the screw holes on the CEK spring.

The CEK springs come pre-installed under the CPU sockets to support the weight of the CPU heatsinks. It is recommended that you keep the springs installed to prevent motherboard breakage.

2.Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the four heatsink screws in a diagonal sequence.
