Installing the CPU heatsink and airduct

To install the CPU heatsink:
1. Carefully place the heatsink on top

of the installed CPU and secure the

heatsink to the motherboard with a

The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO NOT force the CPU into the

socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket and damaging the CPU!

6. Close the load plate (A), then push

the load lever (B) until it snaps into

the retention tab.
