Apply a small amount of thermal grease to the centre of the CPU-there is no need to spread the grease manually, the force used during the installation of the Thermal Module is sufficient. 3. Align the screw holes on the Thermal Module and Mainboard and lower the module into place. Keep the module as level as possible to spread the thermal grease evenly. 4.
