Figure 31 Removing the Air Baffle

To remove the heat sink:

2.

Lift the heat sink away from the system board.

CAUTION: Place heat sink down in an upright position with the thermal patch facing upward. Do

not let the thermal patch touch the work surface.

Figure 32 Removing the heat sink assembly

IMPORTANT: If the heat sink has been removed for any reason on a previously installed processor,

it is critical that you apply more thermal interface material to the integrated heat spreader on the

processor to ensure proper thermal bonding between the processor and the heat sink.
