About this task NOTE: When installing this component, see the Tech Sheet that is bundled with the service kit. The presence of Element 31 grease in the computer depends on the discrete Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) configuration installed. To determine if your computer has Element 31 grease applied on the CPU or GPU, see the following table. Table 28. CPU or GPU supporting Element 31 grease GPU Element 31 grease NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Present in both CPU and GPU NOTE: The heat sink may become hot during normal operation. Allow sufficient time for the heat sink to cool before you touch it. NOTE: For maximum cooling of the processor, do not touch the heat transfer areas on the heat sink. The oils in your skin can reduce the heat transfer capability of the thermal grease. The following images indicate the location of the fan and heat-sink assembly and provide a visual representation of the removal procedure. 95
