Installation of the Heatsink

CEK Heatsink Installation

CEK Passive Heatsink

1.Do not apply any thermal grease to the heatsink or the CPU die-the required amount has already been applied.

2.Place the heatsink on top of the CPU so that the four mounting holes are aligned with those on the retention mechanism.

3. Screw in two diagonal screws (ie the #1 and the #2 screws) until just snug (-do not fully tighten the screws to avoid possible damage to the CPU.)
