Installing the Heatsink
You must install the processor before installing the heatsink. For instructions, see
“Installing the Processor” on page 49.
Caution: Improper installation can damage the heatsink. Pay close attention to the steps and
perform each step exactly as indicated to avoid damage.
Caution: The heatsink has Thermal Interface Material (TIM) located on the bottom of it. Use
caution when you unpack the heatsink so you do not damage the TIM.
Note: New unused heatsinks have adequate TIM on the bottom. If you are reusing a heatsink
from replacing a processor, make sure there is adequate TIM present on the heatsink to
support processor cooling.
