I. Preparing the motherboard

1. You must uninstall your MB prior to installing the MCX462-Uheat sink.

2. Install standoffs in MB

Determine which standoff washers to use, depending on the mounting holes sizes of your particular MB model:

•Large holes .230”(5.8mm) diameter, use in the following order: standoff, black fiber washer, .220x.046 Nylon spacers (fits

inside the MB hole), then on the other side of the MB, black fiber washer, and lock-nut.

•Small grounded holes .150”(3.8mm) diameter (you can recognize grounding by a silver ring around the holes), use in the

following order: standoff directly to the MB (black fiber washer is NOT necessary), then on the other side of the MB, black

fiber washer, and lock-nut.

•Small holes, NOT grounded (bare circuit board): you must use black fiber washers, or damage to the MB may occur: use

in the following order: standoff, black fiber washer, then on the other side of the MB, black fiber washer, and lock-nut.

four holes surrounding the socket.

Keep the standoff & washer centered

over the MB holes, and secure with

hex lock nuts on backside of the

MB.

3. Re-install the MB inside the case.

II. Heat sink Installation

1. The case should be laying flat on a table.

2. Insert the processor into the socket, and lightly coat the processor core with the provided Arctic Aluminathermal compound. Only

a paper thin coat is necessary. It should be applied using preferably a razor blade, or a credit card, held between thumb and index at

a 45°angle. It is critical to ascertain that the entire core is covered with a uniform coat of thermal compound. Thermal performance will

dramatically decrease if any portion of the core is not covered by thermal compound.

3. Place the bare MCX462+heat sink

over the CPU as shown in the picture to

the right. The step side should be

located over the socket’s cam box.

Keep the heat sink mounting holes

4. Prepare 4 assembliescomposed of (1) 1 ½”

screw, (2) .230x.096 Nylon spacers, and (1) spring

as shown in the picture to the left. Drop each

assembly in the heat sink mounting holes. While

gently pressing at the center of the heat sink, start

tightening the screws gradually in a crisscross

pattern until you feel that they reach the bottom of

the standoff. A “finger-tight” lock is sufficient.

Over tightening may result in stripping the nylon

hex nut. Conversely, adjustments such as

tightening the screws only partially are strictly

prohibited. Such attempts will result in improper

contact between the CPU core and the heat sink,

and result in CPU overheating.

5. Fan Installation: Place the fan over the heat sink. The airflow should

be blowing down (fan label facing down). Place the fan guard over the

fan. Tighten the four 6-32 x 2” screws. The fan is equipped with two

connectors: a four pin molex connector which must be connected to

the power supply, and a 3 pin single wire connector which connects

to the MB fan sensor header.

6. Optional fan rheostat: a rheostat model # RH070 is sold separately,

and allows to adjust the fan speed. It connects between the fan power

connector and the power supply connector. Please consult your

distributor if you wish to purchase this item. Reducing the fan speed

reduces fan noise up to 9 dBA. It also reduces thermal performance,

and will affect overclocking performance accordingly. It is however

perfectly appropriate for non overclocked processors.

III. Final inspection

Now that the heat sink is installed, startup your computer, go into the BIOS and observe the CPU temperature. Under normal ambient

temperature conditions, the processor temperature should never exceed 55°C (130 °F). If it does, shut down the computer immediately,

and review your entire installation. Troubleshooting help is available on our web site at www.swiftnets.com, or by calling customer support at

562-595-8009.

Uninstall note: CPU removal from some socket motherboards

Once in place, the standoffs may slightly interfere with CPU removal in some motherboards:

Depending on the manufacturers, sockets use either a plastic locking arm, or a metal locking arm. Sockets using a plastic locking arm require

that the arm be slightly pried open at the center in order to release it from its retaining tab. This can easily be done by inserting a thin screwdriver

in between the socket body and the arm’s mid-section, and by slightly twisting the screwdriver in either direction, while pulling on the arm. This

will slightly arch the mid-section of the arm, and release it from its locking tab.

Do not install the Intelstock

retention mechanism (black plastic

installed.

Install standoff in each one of the four

holes surrounding the socket. Keep the

standoff centered over the MB holes, and

secure with nylon hex nuts on backside of

the MB. If you are going to

assemble/disassemble the heat sink

frequently, we recommend finishing the

installation by putting a drop of “Crazy

Glue “ at the junction between standoff &

MB, and between nylon hex nut & MB.

This will lock the standoff onto the MB,

and further prevent it from spinning lose

during frequent assembly and

disassembly operations.

6. Re-install the MB inside the case.

3. Insert the processor into the socket, and lightly coat the processor core

with high quality thermal compound. Only a paper thin coat is

necessary. It should be applied using preferably a razor blade, or a credit

card, held between thumb and index at a 45 degree angle. It is critical to

ascertain that the entire core is covered with a uniform coat of thermal

compound. Thermal performance will dramatically decrease if any portion of

the core is not covered by thermal compound. We recommend Arctic

Silver or similar high end compound for superior thermal conductivity.

4. Place the bare MCX462-U heat sink over the CPU as shown in the

picture below. The step side should be located over the socket’s cam box.

Keep the heat sink mounting holes lined up with the standoffs.
