CPU Cooler in an AMD Motherboard

How to Install :

Before opening your computer, make sure that it is unplugged and in a non-static surface.
 Wood or a glass table is ideal.

Turn off the computer and move it to the non-static surface. Use your screwdriver to open the case panel.
Remove the panel and take a look at the motherboard. It should look similar to the image.
Now proceed to remove your previous CPU heat sink. In order to do this, you need to undo the lever on the right side. Do this by gently pulling up on the lever until it becomes unhinged and loose.
  • The CPU should come off with ease.
  • Check that all the components are incorrectly so that there are no complications in the install process. The CPU should be perfectly flat.
  • Apply the thermal paste onto the CPU. The amount of paste used should be such that the paste does not leak over the when the CPU is installed.
  • Take the replacement heat sink and line it up correctly with the lever facing the PCI ports.
  • Connect the left connector bracket to the left side. This is important because it allows the lever to lock in the CPU heat sink so that it does not move.
  • Connect the right side
  • Take the lever and push it forward until it clicks into place.
  • Plug in the wire
