Warning: Do not apply any thermal grease to the heatsink; the required amount

of thermal grease has already been applied.

To maximizing the cooling effect of the i2DML-8G2/i2DML-iG2, we strongly rec-

ommend that Supermicro's proprietary heatsinks (SNK-0046) be used with

Itanium2 CPUs.

1. Place a heatsink (SNK-0046) on top of the CPU so that the four mounting holes

are aligned with those on the retention mechanism as shown in Figure 1 below.

2. Screw in two diagonal screws (eg. the #1 and #2 screws) until just snug (do

not fully tighten), then do the same with the remaining diagonal screws as shown

in Figure 2 and Figure 3.
