Thermal Solutions
As processor technology p shes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal
management becomes increasingly cr cial when b ilding comp ter systems. Maintaining
the proper thermal environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The
overall goal in providing the proper thermal environment is keeping the processor
below its specified maxim m case temperat re. Heatsinks ind ce improved processor
heat dissipation thro gh increased s rface area and concentrated airflow from attached
fans. In addition, interface materials allow effective transfers of heat from the
processor to the heatsink. For optim m heat transfer, Intel recommends the se of
thermal grease and mo nting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal sol tion for yo r system, please refer to the website below
for collection of heatsinks eval ated and recommended by Intel for se with Intel
processors.
