E. Cooler Installation

① Apply a suitable amount of thermal grease on the center of the CPU, then mount the

heatsink and fasten the installation bolts based on the CPU socket type.

When installing the heatsink on a tower case, make sure the heatpipe on the

base is parallel to the ground, as installing it perpendicularly may limit the cooling

performance.
