Heatsink installation
The MCX603-V
heatsink uses Intel’s validated retention clips,
which are provided with your motherboard. It does not
necessitate removal of the motherboard. Please consult your
motherboard user’s manual for installation of the retention frame
and clips.
Note: on one side of the heatsink, the outmost row of pins has
been removed. This provides clearance for installation of two
MCX603-V
heatsinks in side-by-side, dual processor
configurations.
Simply place the heatsink onto the CPU, and push down on the
spring clips to secure the assembly.
TIP: press down on the opposite side of the heatsink while
installing the first clip, to prevent the assembly from tilting.

Alternate retention
Swiftech’s optional proprietary retention mechanism (spring
loaded screws & standoffs) is also available online. Information is
available on our site
