Installing Socket 478 CPU Cooler Set
As processor technology pushes to faster speed and a higher
performance, thermal management becomes increasingly
important. To dissipate heat, you need to attach the CPU cooling
fan and heatsink on top of the CPU and we suggest that users
should purchase Intel
®
Boxed Cube Cooler for better heat
dissipation. (Please refer to the image at the right hand).
Follow the instructions below to install the Heatsink/ Fan:
1. Locate the CPU and its retention mechanism on the motherboard.
2. Position the heatsink onto the retention mechanism.
3. Mount the fan on top of the heatsink. Press down the fan until its four clips get wedged
in the holes of the retention mechanism.
4. Press the two levers down to fasten the fan. Each lever can be pressed down in only
ONE direction.
5. Connect the fan power cable from the mounted fan to the 3-pin fan power connector on
the board.
Installing Memory Modules
1. The memory module has only one notch on the center and will only fit in the right
orientation.
2. Insert the memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the golden
finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the DIMM slot. The plastic clip at
each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close when the memory module is
properly seated.
3. Manually check if the memory module has been locked in place by the DIMM slot clips
at the sides.
Notch
Important:
DDR2 memory modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDR2 standard is not
backwards compatible. You should always install DDR2 memory modules in the DDR2
DIMM slots.
In Dual-Channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the same type and
density in different channel DIMM slots.
To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules into the DIMM1
first.
