Intel Pentium 4 Socket478 Processor Thermal Solutions

As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal
management becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining
the proper thermal environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The overall
goal in providing the proper thermal environment is keeping the processor below its
specified maximum case temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation
through increased surface area and concentrated airflow from attached fans. In addition,
interface materials allow effective transfers of heat from the processor to the heatsink. For
optimum heat transfer, Intel recommends the use of thermal grease and mounting clips to
attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website below for
collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use with Intel processors.
Note, those heatsinks are recommended for maintaining the specified Maximum T case
requirement. In addition, this collection is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all
heatsinks that support Intel processors.
