Use the thermal grease syringe included with your processor kit to apply the grease in a quadrilateral design on the top of the processor. CAUTION: Applying too much thermal grease can result in excess grease coming in contact with and contaminating the processor socket. NOTE: The thermal grease syringe is intended for single use only. Dispose the syringe after you use it. Figure 47. Applying thermal grease on top of the processor 5. Place the heat sink on the processor and push down on the base of the heat sink until the bracket locks onto the heat sink. NOTE: • Ensure that the two guide pin holes on the bracket match the guide holes on the heat sink. Installing and removing system components 89
