1.12 Installing CPU and heat sink
The MIC-3376 provides a slot 1 socket and accepts the Intel Pentium
III/II CPU. The slot 1 socket is mounted parallel to the CPU card in
order to keep the board within a 2-slot wide space. The configuration
of the heat sink is specially designed for the MIC-3376 in a very thin
format and can only accept S.E.C.C.2 package processors. The special
designed heat sink will be packaged with the MIC-3376. Figure 1-6
illustrates the assembly of a heat sink on a processor. Figure 1-7
illustrates the installation of a CPU into the slot 1 socket.

The external cooling air, whether from the chassis
or from the rack, is a must during operation to
protect the CPU from overheating.
Before fasten the heat sink on the processor,
remember to tear apart the blue covers from the
cooling adhensives on the heat sink.
