Zalman's Super Thermal Grease recommended for better thermal performance. 8. Installation 1) Intel Pentium D / Pentium 4 - Socket 775 Backplate Installation Remove the protective film of theBackplate for Socket 775, and attach the backplate after aligning it with the holes from the backside of motherboard. Mounting hole Nipple Protective Film Backplate for Socket 775 Thermal Grease Application Clear off any particles and residue from the top of the CPU then spread the enclosed Thermal Grease generously on the surface of the CPU that makes contact with the base of CNPS8000. Thermal Grease CPU(IHS) Clip Installation Inter rock the pair of Clips for socket 775 by sliding them into each other between the heatsink's base and fin. Caution) The arrowhead marking on each clip must be in line with the arrowhead markings on the heatsink's base. Base Bolt Clip for Socket 775 Cooler Installation Place the CNPS8000 on the center of the CPU. Slightly screw the four bolts onto the backplate's nipples, then tighten each bolt one rotation at a time until all are completely tightened. Note 1) Excessive force can result in damage to the nipples. Note 2) Exerting excessive force on the fan with the driver can result in malfunction. Power Connection (FAN MATE2 Installation) Please refer to FAN MATE 2 Installation and Usage on page 5. 3 2) AMD Sempron / AMD64 - Socket 754/939/940 Thermal Grease Application Clear off any particles and residue from the top of the CPU then spread the enclosed Thermal Grease thinly on the surface of the CPU that makes contact with the base of CNPS8000. Thermal Grease CPU(Lid) Clip Installation Inter rock the pair of Clips for AMD 64 by sliding them into each other between the heatsink's base and fin. Caution) The arrowhead marking on each clip must be in line with the arrowhead markings on the heatsink's base. Clip-A for AMD64 Base Clip-B for AMD64 Cooler Installation Hook the hole of Clip-B onto the retention frame's lug. Then hook the hole of Clip-A onto the retention frame's lug by pressing down on the lever of the Clip-A. Note ) Set the direction of the Clips in a manner so that there is no interference with other components of the motherboard. Lever Clip slot Lug Uninstalling the Cooler To uninstall the CNPS8000, press onto the clip slot with the use of a ( lever to disconnect the clip hole from the retention frame's lug. ) driver, then push off the Power Connection (FAN MATE2 Installation) Please refer to FAN MATE 2 Installation and Usage on page 5. 4 9. FAN MATE 2 Installation and Usage 1) Installing FAN MATE 2 on the Inside of the System 2) Installing FAN MATE 2 on the Outside of the System Double - sided Tape Fan Connector (CNPS8000) FAN MATE 2 6-Pin Connector Motherboard Connect the appropriate 3-pin connector on the cable to the motherboard fan header and the CNPS8000's fan connector. Pull the 6-pin connector out of the system through the back and connect it to FAN MATE 2, which should be installed on the case using the included double-sided tape ( ). When the speed control knob on FAN MATE 2 is turned fully counter-clockwise, the fan operates in Silent Mode. Turned fully clockwise, it operates in Normal Mode. You can select the desired fan speed by turning the knob. Note) FAN MATE 2 has been specifically designed for the fan of this product. Zalman Tech Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damage to systems or CPUs caused by using it with other types of fans. 10. Notes on Usage 1) Checking CPU Compatibility Please refer to "Compatible CPUs" on page 3 to confirm that your CPU is compatible before using the CNPS8000. 2) Cautions During Booting The computer system may automatically shut down when booting the computer after the system monitoring program outputs a warning stating that the CPU fan is rotating slowly. In such a case, fully turn the speed control knob in the clockwise direction before booting to disable the `CPU Fan Detected' option in BIOS setting, or set the CPU fan's rotational speed to less than or equal to 1300rpm in the system monitoring program. Note) Some motherboards fail to boot if the rotational speed of the CPU fan is below a certain rpm. However, booting can be possible even at low fan rpm if the BIOS settings are updated. For more information on updating your BIOS, please refer to the website of your motherboard manufacturer. There are motherboards which fail to detect the rpm while operating the cooler on Silent Mode, but this does not affect computing performance. 3) OVERCLOCKING Zalman Tech Co., Ltd. is not responsible for any damages in CPU resulting from OVERCLOCKING. 5 11. Zalman Computer Noise Prevention System The use of Zalman's Noiseless Power Supply, CPU Cooler, Case Fan, Fanless Northbridge Cooler, and Video Card Cooler will allow you to achieve stable performance and maintain a noiseless environment. 12.
