Steps
1. Disconnect the left and right fan cables from the system board.
2. Turn the system-board assembly over.
3. In the reverse sequential order (8>7>6>5>4>3>2>1), remove the eight screws (M2x3) that secure the fan and heat-sink
assembly to the system board.
4. Lift the fan and heat-sink assembly off the system board.
CAUTION: Do not use an alcohol wipe to clean the Element 31 thermal grease off the surface of the CPU or GPU, the
alcohol solution from the wipes will dissolve the Element 31 grease into conductive metal particles. If these conductive
metal particles come into contact with the surface of the system board, it will cause the an electrical short when your
computer is powered on.
