3.6.2 Heatsinks

The recommended heatsinks (see 3.6.4 Recommended Heatsinks for Slot 1 Proces-
sors
for more information) for the boxed Pentium III / II and Celeron processors are
those with three-pin fans that can be connected to the fan connectors on the mother-
board.

WARNING!

Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s

heatsink by regularly checking that your CPU fan is working. Without sufficient
circulation, the processor could overheat and damage both the processor and the
motherboard. You may install an auxiliary chassis fan, if necessary.
