2.3 Installing the 1U Heatsink

CPU Heatsink

The 1U server comes with a specially designed heatsink as shown here.
The heatsink has four screws to secure it to the server chassis underneath
the motherboard.

Install the Heatsink

Place the heatsink on top of the
installed CPU matching the four
screws to the holes around the
socket. To secure the heatsink,
tighten each screw a little at a time
in a circle so that the heatsink will
rest on the CPU evenly.

The CPU heatsink must be installed to prevent damaging
the CPU and motherboard.

IMPORTANT

Connect the Fan Cable

From the factory, the CPU fan cable
is already connected to the 3-pin fan
connector on the motherboard
marked CPU_FAN.
