NOTE:
Your kit may contain a replacement heat sink if you are installing a
processor that consumes additional power. The new heat sink may not appear
different than the original one; however, it has improved thermal dissipation
specifications and must be used.
a
Using a clean lint-free cloth, remove the thermal grease from the heat
sink.
CAUTION:
Applying too much thermal grease can result in excess grease coming
in contact with and contaminating the processor socket.
b
Open the grease packet included with your processor kit and apply a
spot of thermal grease equal to the size of a finger nail to the top
center of the new processor.
c
Place the heat sink on the processor. See Figure 3-27.
d
Close the heat-sink release levers or replace the screws at the corners
of the heat sink. See Figure 3-27.
