Page 114 highlights

Installing the processor into a processor and heat sink module Prerequisites 1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in Safety instructions on page 65. 2. Follow the procedure listed in Before working inside your system on page 66. Steps 1. Place the processor in the processor tray. NOTE: Ensure that the pin 1 indicator on the processor tray is aligned with the pin 1 indicator on the processor. 2. Flex the outer edges of the bracket around the processor ensuring that the processor is locked into the clips on the bracket. NOTE: Ensure that the pin 1 indicator on the bracket is aligned with the pin 1 indicator on the processor before placing the bracket on the processor. NOTE: Ensure that the processor and the bracket are placed in the tray before you install the heat sink. Figure 64. Installing the processor bracket 3. If you are using an existing heat sink, remove the thermal grease from the heat sink by using a clean lint-free cloth. 4. 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. 114 Installing and removing system components
