Installing the CPU fan and heatsink assembly
The Intel®Pentium®4 LGA775 processor requires a specially designed heatsink
and fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and performance.
To install the CPU heatsink and fan:
1. Place the heatsink on top of the installed
CPU, making sure that the four fasteners
match the holes on the motherboard.
2. Push down two fasteners at a time in a
diagonal sequence to secure the heatsink
and fan assembly in place.
3. When the fan and heatsink assembly is in
place, connect the CPU fan cable to the
connector on the motherboard.
