As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance,
thermal management becomes increasingly crucial when building computer
systems. Maintaining the proper thermal environment is key to reliable
operation. As such, the processor must be maintained in the specified thermal
requirements.

AMD Athlon™/Duron™/Athlon XP processor with a speed of 600MHz and
above
requires LARGER heatsink and fan. You also need to add thermal grease
between the CPU and heatsink to improve heat dissipation. Then, make sure
that the CPU and heatsink are securely fastened and in good contact with each
other. These are needed to prevent damaging the processor and ensuring
reliable operation. If you want to get more information on the proper cooling,
you can visit AMD’s website for reference.
