Minimum Operating Temperature: 0ºC (32°F)

A cooling fan and heat sink must be installed on the CPU. Thermal paste must be

smeared on the lower side of the heat sink before it is mounted on the CPU. Heat sinks

are also mounted on the northbridge and southbridge chipsets to ensure the operating

temperature of these chips remain low.
