IMBA-9454B ATX MotherboardPage 53Figure 5-5: IEI Cooling KitThe cooling kit can be purchased separately. The cooling kits comprise of a CPU heat sinkand a cooling fan.WARNING:Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer ofthermal paste on the bottom of the heat sink. The thermal pastebetween the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heatdissipation.Follow the instructions below to install a cooling kit.Step 1: Place the cooling kit onto the LGA775 CPU. Make sure the CPU cable canbe properly routed when the cooling kit is installed.Step 2: Properly align the cooling kit. Make sure the four spring screw fasteners canpass through the pre-drilled holes on the PCB.Step 3: Mount the cooling kit. Gently place the cooling kit on top of the CPU. Makesure the four threaded screws on the corners of the cooling kit properly passthrough the predrilled holes on the bottom of the PCB.Step 4: Secure the cooling kit. From the solder side of the PCB, align the supportbracket to the screw threads on heat sink that were inserted through the PCBholes. (See Figure 5-6)
