welcome to Techquickie I'm Linus and in today's episode of 1 minute or less

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:10,639
we're going to show you how to install your AMD CPU step one is to lift the

3
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:15,839
retaining ARM step two align the little Golden

4
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:20,000
Triangle on the corner of the CPU with the little triangle-shaped marker on the

5
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:25,599
motherboard itself set the CPU down on the socket

6
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:31,039
giving it a little wiggle until it falls into place then you can lower the ARM

7
00:00:29,199 --> 00:00:36,160
the box for your processor contains a CPU heat sink that has thermal compound

8
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:40,360
pre-applied to the bottom of it and an easy to use mounting mechanism that

9
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:44,680
doesn't require any special tools make sure that you remove the plastic cover

10
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:49,399
before proceeding with step three which is to place the CPU heat SN down on top

11
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:54,039
of the CPU ensuring that the fan cable coming out of the fan is as close to the

12
00:00:52,199 --> 00:00:58,120
fan header on the motherboard labeled CPU as

13
00:00:55,879 --> 00:01:01,920
possible if the wires coming out of the fan ever get caught in the blades it can

14
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:06,280
cause the fan to stop spinning which can make your CPU overheat so to make Cable

15
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:11,960
Management a little bit easier I usually tie a knot in the wires before plugging

16
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:13,799
the wires into the CPU fan header now

17
00:01:11,960 --> 00:01:18,600
that everything's in place the tool-free latch mechanism can be engaged first on

18
00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:23,799
one side pushing it under the hook and then on the other side this

19
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:28,079
last step is very important moving the mounting ARM down into its locked

20
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:32,240
position puts the appropriate amount of pressure on top of the CPU to to Aid

21
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:36,000
with thermal transfer one other trick to get slightly better temperatures is to

22
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:40,799
give the heat sink a little wiggle to settle the thermal compound into place

23
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:44,799
