Installation of CPU Fan
New technology allows processors to run at higher and higher frequencies. To
avoid problems arising from high-speed operation, for example, overheating, you
need to install the proper fan. The following procedures are provided for refer-
ence only, please refer to your CPU fan user guide to install it.
1. Locate the CPU retention mechanism
base (surrounds the CPU socket).
3. Attach the fan to the base.
Warning :
Excessive temperatures will severely damage the CPU and
system. Therefore, make sure that the cooling fan works normally
at all times in order to prevent overheating and damaging to the
CPU.

2. If required, apply a light coating
of silica gel to the top of the CPU.
Note: The CPU heatsink may have a
pre-applied thermal compound. In that
case, the silica gel is not required.

cable to the appropriate 3-pin
