Follow these guidelines to install a heatsink on a processor, using a thermal pad as the thermal interface material. Thermal pads should be used with AMD Athlon MP, AMD Athlon XP and AMD Duron processors only. These processors are lidless, that is, the processor die comes into direct contact with the heatsink.
- Verify that the heatsink has a thermal pad attached. If the heatsink does not have a thermal pad attached, locate the area of the heatsink that will directly contact the processor, and apply the thermal pad to this area only.
- Remove the protective film(s) from the thermal pad.
- Mount the heatsink onto the processor.
Always follow the AMD-recommended procedures to install a heatsink onto a processor to avoid damaging the processor or motherboard. See the Socket A AMD Processor and Heatsink Installation Guide, order# 23986 Do not re-use thermal pads. Before re-using the heatsink remove the thermal interface material and reapply a new thermal pad.
Eu sugiro usar pasta térmica para processadores com tampa, porém, proporciona melhor condução e vida útil da pasta. Este documento de pesquisa da AMD tem boas instruções para ambos os métodos, bem como vantagens e desvantagens.
