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 you have properly applied Thermal Interface Material to the CPU

heatsink or CPU before you install the heatsink and fan assembly.

Make sure to orient each fastener with the narrow end of the groove pointing

outward. (The photo shows the groove shaded for emphasis.)

To install the CPU heatsink and fan:

1. Place the heatsink on top of the

installed CPU, making sure that the

four fasteners match the holes on

the motherboard.
