A300 Motherboard

WARNING:

Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of

thermal paste on the bottom of the CF-479A-RS/CF-518-RS heat sink.

The thermal paste between the CPU and the heat sink is important for

optimum heat dissipation.

To install the CF-479A-RS/CF-518-RS cooling kit, please follow the steps below.

Step 1:

Place the cooling kit onto the CPU. Make sure the CPU cooling fan cable

can be properly routed when the cooling kit is installed.

Step 2:

Properly align the cooling kit. Make sure its four spring screw fasteners can

pass through the pre-drilled holes on the PCB.

Step 3:

Secure the cooling kit. From the solder side of the PCB, align the support

bracket to the screw threads on heat sink that were inserted through the PCB

holes. (See Figure 5-4)

Step 4:

Tighten the screws. Use a screwdriver to tighten the four screws. Tighten each

nut a few turns at a time and do not over-tighten the screws.
