RMC 7182
1U Rackmount System
Installing a Passive CPU Heatsink
Notes: The motherboard comes with a heatsink
bracket pre-in- stalled on the reverse side of the
board. Do not apply any thermal grease to the
heatsink or the CPU die; the required amount
has al-
ready been applied.
1. Place the heatsink on top
of the CPU so that the four mounting holes are
aligned with those on the retention mechanism.
2. Install two diagonal screws
(i.e. the #1 and the #2
screws) and tighten them until just snug (do not
fully tighten the screws to avoid damaging the
CPU.)
3. Repeat step 2 with the #3
and #4 screws. Make sure all screws are snug.
