CAUTION: Applying too much grease creates a gap between the contact surfaces, significantly reducing the ability of the cooler to draw out heat. Installing the cooler 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. 4. Holding the processor by the edges, insert the processor into the socket(Figure 3-22, 2). CAUTION: Ensure that the processor is correctly positioned with the orientation notch on the socket and that the pins are aligned correctly with the socket holes (Figure 3-22, 1). 5. Close the retention plate (Figure 3-22, 2) and lower and engage the load lever (Figure 3-22, 3) to fully seat the processor. Figure 3-22 Installing a processor CAUTION: After you install the processor, the heatsink must be reinstalled on top of the processor socket. The thermal grease applied on the contact surfaces of the processor provides the necessary thermal bonding to allow the heatsink to draw away heat from the processor.
