Installing the Heatsink Retention Modules

One heatsink retention module (BKT-0005) and two screws are included in the retail

box. Once installed, these are used to help attach the heatsink to the CPU. To

install, position the module so that the CPU backplate standoffs insert through the

holes on the heatsink retention module and the four feet on the module contact the

motherboard. Secure the retention module to the backplate with the two screws

provided. See Figure 2-1.

Note: BKT-0005 is included for use with third-party heatsinks only. When installing

SNK-P0012, only BKT-0004 (the CPU backplate) is needed. The BKT-0005 reten-

tion module was designed to provide compatibility with clip-and-cam type heatsinks

from third parties.
