Installing the Motherboard 2-5
Insert a flat screwdriver into the middle slot of the
right side fix plate and push down. Then you can
push the fix plate over the socket hooks on the right
side. Check the photo on the left.
Check the photo on the left. You have finished the
heatsink installation.
Now hold the whole heatsink and slightly shake it,
make sure the buttom right side of the heaksink does
not contact the right side of the Socket (see bottom
picture). Otherwise, the processor die does not have
proper contact with the heatsink. This situation may
cause processor damage.
Remember to install the heatsink fan power cable to
the CPU fan header on the motherboard.
Now you can reinstall the motherboard back into the
chassis.
When all above procedures done, you can connect
the ATX power cable to the motherboard.
If you have different types of heatsink kit, please
refer to the manual that came with the heatsink kit.
The left photo shows another type of heatsink fix
plate design. The install sequences are still the same,
from right side to left side. Just remember that.
We strongly recommand you to buy a heatsink
with three holes in the fix plate. This will provide
the best stabability and won't cause the Socket fix
hooks to be broken or damaged.
The left photo shows the bottom right side of the
heaksink in contact with the right side of the Socket.
In this situation, the processor die does not properly
contact the heatsink. If you start the computer at this
monent, it will immediately cause the processor
damage. Always check this place when you finish the
heatsink installation.
