8.2.2 Boxed Processor Heatsink Weight
The boxed processor heatsink weight is approximately 530 grams. See Section 3 of this document
for details on the processor weight.
8.2.3 Boxed Processor Retention Mechanism and Heatsink
Supports
Baseboards and chassis’s designed for use by system integrators should include holes that are in
proper alignment with each other to support the boxed processor. See Figure 8-7 for example of
processor pitch and layout.
Figure 8-1 illustrates the new retention solution. This is designed to extend air-cooling capability
through the use of larger heatsinks with minimal airflow blockage and minimal bypass. These
retention mechanisms can allow the use of much heavier heatsink masses compared to legacy
