Intel Pentium 4 Processor Family
Cooling Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance,
thermal management becomes increasingly crucial when building computer
systems. Maintaining the proper thermal environment is key to reliable,
long-term system operation. The overall goal in providing the proper thermal
environment is keeping the processor below its specified maximum case
temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation through
increased surface area and concentrated airflow from attached fans. In addition,
interface materials allow effective transfers of heat from the processor to the
heatsink. For optimum heat transfer, Intel recommends the use of thermal
grease and mounting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website
below for collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use
with Intel processors. Note, those heatsinks are recommended for maintaining
the specified Maximum T case requirement. In addition, this collection is not
intended to be a comprehensive listing of all heatsinks that support Intel
processors.

2-5-2 CPU Installation
2-5-2.1 Installing CPU
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the
ZIF socket and open it by first pulling the lever sideways away from the socket
and lift the lever upward to a 90-degree angle. Insert the CPU with the correct
orientation as shown below. The notched corner should be pointed toward the
end of the lever. The CPU has corner pin on two of the four corners and the
CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown.

When you insert the CPU onto the ZIF socket, no force is required. After
inserting, press the lever slightly without any extra force to lock CPU in
position.
2-5-2.2 Installing heatsink & cooling fan
The Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor requires a specially designed heatsink and
cooling fan assembly to ensure optimum thermal condition and performance.
Note! When you buy a boxed Intel Pentium 4 Processor, the package includes
the heatsink, fan, and retention mechanism. In case you buy a CPU
separately, make sure that you use only Intel
11
Follow these steps to install the CPU heatsink and fan.
1. Place the heatsink on top of the installed CPU, making sure that the heatsink
fits properly on the retention module base.

Retention Module Base
Note!
1). The retention module base is already installed on the motherboard upon
purchase. You do not have to remove the retention module base when
installing the CPU or installing other motherboard components.
2). Your boxed Intel Pentium 4 Processor package should come with
installation instructions for the CPU, heatsink, and the retention
mechanism. If the instructions in this section do not match the CPU,
please refer to the installation instructions inside the boxed Intel
Pentium 4 Processor package.
2. Position the
fan with the retention mechanism on top of the heatsink. Align
and snap the four hooks of the retention mechanism to the holes on each
corner of the module base.
12
Caution:
1). Make sure that the fan and retention mechanism assembly perfectly fits
the heatsink and module base, otherwise you cannot snap the hooks
into the holes.
2). Keep the retention locks lifted upward while fitting the retention
mechanism to the module base.
3. Push down the locks on the retention mechanism to secure the heatsink and
fan to the module base. When secure, the retention locks should point to
opposite directions.
Caution: Don’t forget to connect the CPU fan connector! Hardware
monitoring errors may occur if you fail to plug this connector.
2-6 Installing System Memory
2-6-1 Overview
The motherboard comes with four Double Data Rate (DDR) Dual Inline
Memory Module (DIMM) sockets. These sockets support up to 4GB system
memory by using 184-pin non-ECC PC3200/ PC2700/PC2100 DDR DIMMs,
and allow up to 6.4GB/s data transfer rate.

NOTE!
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab should be
locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention on both sides.
WARNING!
For the DDR SDRAM CLOCK is set at 200MHz, use only DDR400-compliant DDR
Modules. When this motherboard operate at 200Mhz, most system will not even
boot if non-compliant modules are used because of the strict timing issues, if your
SDR Modules are not DDR266-compliant, set the DDR SDRAM clock to 133MHz
to ensure system stability.
2-6-3 Installing a DIMM
Follow these steps to install a DIMM.
1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing
