5.1 ATX Reference Design Requirements
This chapter will document the requirements for an active air-cooled design, with a
fan installed at the top of the heatsink. The thermal technology required for the
processor.
The Intel
®
Core™2 Extreme quad-core processor QX6000 series at the
775_VR_CONFIG_05B and Intel
®
Core™2 Extreme processor QX9000 series require a
thermal solution equivalent to the RCFH-4 reference design, see Figure 10 for an
expl
oded view of this reference design.
