Figure 33 Installing the processor CAUTION: HP recommends using Shin-Etsu X-23-7783D thermal grease compound for your ProLiant server. To apply the thermal grease compound: 1. Apply all the grease to the top of the processor in one of the following patterns to insure even distribution. Figure 34 Processor top CAUTION: Never touch the bottom of the processor; any contaminant could prevent the mounting pads from making contact with the socket. CAUTION: Applying too much grease creates a gap between the contact surfaces, significantly reducing the ability of the heat sink to draw out heat. Installing the heat sink with excessive grease can also cause the grease to spread over the processor pins or the system board base, which can cause electrical shorts that damage the system.
