The recommended heatsinks (see section on recommended heatsinks for more in-

connected to the fan connectors on the motherboard.
WARNING! Be sure that sufficient air circulation is available across the
processor's heatsink by regularly checking that your CPU fan is working. With-
out sufficient circulation, the processor could overheat and damage both the pro-
