For AMD Athlon/XP processors, the left or right receptacles will be used,
depending on which direction the CPU socket faces in relation to the cooler.
For Intel P-4, Xeon, AMD Athlon 64, or Opteron processors, use the center
hole.

With the bracket properly aligned, insert and slowly twist the tension screw
until it can no longer be tightened. Over-tightening is prevented by a
ratcheting action.

Due to different contact pressure requirements, two tension screws are
included with the CPU-300. Use the

BLUE

screw for “open die” processors,

such as: AMD Athlon/XP or Intel P-III. Use the BLACK screw for processors
with heat spreaders, such as: Intel P-4, Xeon, or AMD 64/Opteron.

may result in hardware damage.

CAUTION: Installing the tension screw into the wrong cooler
receptacle can cause insufficient cooler contact, and may result in
hardware damage.
