CAUTION:CAUTION:
To prevent thermal failure or component damage, do not move the heatsink once the bottom of its base plate touches
the top of the processor. Excessive heatsink movement can cause the thermal grease to smear and become uneven.
Voids in the compound can adversely impact the transfer of heat away from the processor.
CAUTION:CAUTION:
Heatsink screws must be tightened and loosened in alternating sequence. Do not overtighten the screws as this might
damage the system board or the processor socket.
13. Use a T-20 Torx screwdriver to tighten the six captive screws in the sequence specified on the heatsink label.
When using a torque wrench to tighten the screws, apply a torque of 1.58 N-m (14 lbf-in).
