The Intel ® Pentium ® 4 LGA775 processor requires a specially designed
heatsink and fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and
performance.
• Install the motherboard to the chassis before you install the CPU fan
and heatsink assembly
• When you buy a boxed Intel ® Pentium ® 4 LGA775 processor, the
package includes the CPU fan and heatsink assembly. If you buy a
CPU separately, make sure that you use only Intel
® -certified
multi-directional heatsink and fan.
• Your Intel ® Pentium ® 4 LGA775 heatsink and fan assembly comes in
a push-pin design and requires no tool to install.
If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, make sure
that a Thermal Interface Material is properly applied to the CPU heatsink
or CPU before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.
To install the CPU heatsink and fan:
1. Place the heatsink on top of the
installed CPU, making sure that
the four fasteners match the
holes on the motherboard.
