Spray the back of the motherboard, concentrating on the area
immediately behind the CPU. Also spray all the way down, in a
vertical path directly under the CPU area. Allow time to dry, per
manufacturer specs.
Use masking tape to protect the CPU socket, and any connector
sockets in the immediate vicinity of the processor. A double layer
of tape is recommended for all sockets, as the spray may soak a
single layer of tape and contaminate the contacts.
Spray the area immediately surrounding the socket. It is not
recommended to spray further than the area circled in the above
picture. Allow the coating to be “dry to the touch” (20 minutes
approximately), and remove the masking tape. Then let the board
dry completely per manufacturer specs.
Dielectric grease application: This step will ensure that condensation does not form inside of the CPU socket.

Squirt a generous amount of grease onto the socket.
Force the grease inside of the pin-holes with your finger. Make
sure that the central area of the socket is completely filled with
grease.

Securing the MCW5002-AT cooler to the motherboard:
Initial check: make sure that the retention clips are at their lowest
position by tightening the 2 spring loaded Philips screws until the
springs are fully compressed (do not over-tighten)
Engage one side of the clip under the CPU socket retention lugs
Gently pull the water-block in the opposite direction and push it down
to catch the opposite set of socket lugs. The clip will snap underneath
the socket lugs.
Firmly press the base of the clips (through the gaskets) between middle
finger and thumb as shown in Figure 7 to compress them against the
socket (this will prevent the clips for disengaging themselves from
