Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup
4.Apply the proper amount of thermal compound to the CPU die and place the heatsink on top of the CPU. Make sure the heatsink sits completely flat on the CPU. If not completely flat, the space between the two will degrade the heat dissipation function of the heatsink, which may cause the processor to overheat.
5.Secure the heatsink by locking the retention clips into their proper
position. When correctly installed, the retention clips should *click* into place and the three black tabs on the CPU retention pieces should protrude fully through the corresponding holes on the retention clips. See Figure
6.If installing two processors, repeat these steps to install the second processor in the CPU #2 slot.
