3. Mount the CPU Block
- Apply a small amount of thermal grease to the center of your CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
- Place the backplate on the rear of your motherboard, aligning it with the CPU socket holes.
- Insert the appropriate standoffs (Intel 17XX/115X/1200 or AMD) into the four mounting holes around the CPU socket.
- Carefully place the CPU block onto the CPU, ensuring the mounting holes align with the standoffs.
- Secure the CPU block with the provided mounting screws, tightening them in a diagonal pattern until snug. Do not overtighten.
