CAUTION: Do not use force to seat the processor. When the processor is positioned correctly, it engages into the socket at ease. 2. Place the processor in the socket. 3. Close the processor shield by sliding it under the retention screw on the system board. 4. Lower the processor shield lever and push it under the tab to lock the processor shield. Figure 45. Installing the processor Next steps 1. Install the Heat sink module. 2. Close the PSU assembly. 3. Follow the procedure that is listed in After working inside your system. Installing heat sink module Prerequisites CAUTION: Never remove the heat sink from a processor unless you intend to replace the processor. The heat sink is necessary to maintain proper thermal conditions. 1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in Safety instructions. 2. Follow the safety guidelines listed in Before working inside your system. 3. If removed, install the processor. Steps 1. If you are using an existing heat sink, remove the thermal grease from the heat sink by using a clean lint-free cloth. 2. 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. Installing and removing system components 65
