7

Remove the remaining clip.

8

Remove the heat sink.

9

Rotate the processor release lever a full 135° to release the processor, then
lift the processor out of the socket.

Important

The heat sink mounting paste may harden over time and
hold the heat sink securely to the processor. If removing
the heat sink also pulls the processor out of the processor
socket, the processor should still be undamaged. Continue
with the procedure.
