How to install the motherboard fansink
CAUTION: Do not reuse a fansink, once it has been removed from the motherboard. The thermal compound
will no longer be properly located, and the compression of the pins during removal will prevent them from
fastening properly to the motherboard. Use the fansink replacement kit R767263K.
To install a replacement fansink on the EX motherboard, follow these steps.
1. Align the fansink pins over the pin holes in the motherboard.
2. Place the replacement fansink on the EX motherboard.
Note: The open fins on the fan sink should point toward the CPU section as shown.
3. Push the fansink pins in, so that the tops of the pins are flush with the top of the fansink.
