Figure 40 Installing the Processor
NOTE: If the processor installation tool is not included, grasp the processor by its edges and install it
into the socket.
CAUTION: With the load lever and the retention plate disengaged, hold the processor by its edges
and align it over the empty processor socket. Make sure that you properly align the processor with
the orientation notch on the socket.
To apply the thermal grease compound:
1. Use a clean cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the contact surface on the heat sink and the
new processor. Wipe the contact surfaces several times to make sure that no particles or dust
contaminants are evident.
2. Apply the thermal grease compound to the integrated heat spreader on the processor in one of
the following patterns to insure even distribution.
CAUTION: HP recommends using Shin-Etsu X-23-7783D thermal grease compound for your ProLiant server.
Apply the grease to the top of the processor in either a 5 “Dot” or “S” shaped pattern. Ensure even
distribution
