WARNING: Dimensions on pictures below are scaled.
Please remove the protective foil from both sides of the thermal
pads prior to installation!
APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND
Apply thermal compound on CPU heat spreader (IHS) with enclosed EK-TIM
Ectotherm thermal grease. The quantity of about two rice grains is just about
right. There is no need to cover the whole IHS. Applying too much thermal
grease will have negative impact on the cooling performance!
CUTTING THERMAL PADS
Your block comes with thermal pads which needs to be trimmed in order
to fit the voltage regulation area (MOSFET) on the motherboard’s circuit
board.
