The Intel

Pentium

4 LGA775 processor requires a specially designed

heatsink and fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and

performance.

• Install the motherboard to the chassis before you install the CPU fan

and heatsink assembly

• When you buy a boxed Intel

Pentium

4 processor, the package

includes the CPU fan and heatsink assembly. If you buy a CPU

separately, make sure that you use only Intel

-certified

multi-directional heatsink and fan.

• Your Intel

Pentium

4 LGA775 heatsink and fan assembly comes in

a push-pin design and requires no tool to install.

If you purchased a separate CPU heatsink and fan assembly, make sure

that a Thermal Interface Material is properly applied to the CPU heatsink

or CPU before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.
