    4.2 Heat Sink Installation After installing the processor, proceed to install the heat sink. The CPU heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to operate at maximum performance for as long as you own them. An overheated processor is dangerous to the motherboard. The processors will overheat within seconds, enter thermal protection, and shut down if heat sinks are not installed.
  • Page 53 Figure 18. CPU Heat Sink There are two types of thermal interface materials designed for use with the processor. The most common material comes as a small pad attached to the heat sink at the time of purchase. There should be a protective cover over the material. Take care not to touch this material.

  • Page 148 Glossary Term Definition ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is a power management specification that allows the operating system to control the amount of power ACPI distributed to the computer’s devices. Devices not in use can be turned off, reducing unnecessary power expenditure. AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) is a PCI-based interface which was designed specifically for demands of 3D graphics applications.
