Installing the CPU heatsink

To install the CPU heatsink:

1.

Place the heatsink on top of the

installed CPU, ensuring that the

four screws match the holes on the

motherboard.

2.

Tighten each of the screws with a

Phillips screwdriver just enough

to attach the heatsink to the

motherboard.

3.

When attached, tighten the screws

one-by-one in a criss-cross sequence

and secure the CPU heatsink onto the

socket. Ensure an even distribution

of contact between the heatsink and

CPU.
