Jumper Settings; Clear Cmos Data - DFI AL173 User Manual

4. Place the heat sink assembly on top of the CPU. The 4 screws around the heat sink must
match the screw holes of the retention module base. We strongly recommend using this
type of heat sink assembly because it provides adequate cooling to the components of the
system board.
Turn each Phillips head screw half way down first to initially stabilize the heat sink onto
the board, then finally tighten each screw.
Important:
Do not turn the first screw all the way down followed by the next and so on. This is
to avoid imbalance which might cause cracks or fractures to the CPU and/or heat sink
assembly.
