Installing System Components
Cooling Shroud
The cooling shroud covers the processor, heat sink, and memory modules,
and provides air flow to these components. The cooling shroud directs airflow
over the system processor and memory modules.
WARNING:
The memory modules and heat sink can get very hot during normal
operation. Ensure that the memory modules and heat sink have had sufficient
time to cool before you touch them.
CAUTION:
Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.
You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in
your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service
and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not
covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came

CAUTION:
