4.1. Igbaradi
- Awọn irinṣẹ Kojọpọ: You will need a Phillips head screwdriver, thermal paste (if not pre-applied on the cooler), and cleaning alcohol/cloth for old thermal paste removal (if upgrading).
- Motherboard Preparation: Ensure your motherboard is installed in the chassis and any necessary standoffs are in place. Refer to your motherboard manual for specific instructions.
- Imudojuiwọn BIOS: Some motherboards may require a BIOS update to support 11th Generation Intel processors. Check your motherboard manufacturer's webojula.
4.2. Fifi sori ẹrọ isise
- Open CPU Socket: Locate the CPU socket on your motherboard. Gently push down the small lever on the side of the socket and pull it outwards to release the retention frame. Lift the metal load plate.
- Ṣètò Ìṣètò: Carefully remove the processor from its packaging. Identify the two notches on the sides of the processor and align them with the corresponding keys on the LGA 1200 socket. Ensure the gold triangle on the processor matches the triangle on the socket. Do not force the processor into the socket.
- Olùṣiṣẹ́ Ìjókòó: Gently lower the processor straight down into the socket. It should sit without resistance.
- Close Socket: Lower the metal load plate back over the processor. Push the lever back into its original position until it clicks, securing the processor.

4.3. Sipiyu kula fifi sori
- Waye Lẹẹ Gbona: If your cooler does not have pre-applied thermal paste, apply a small pea-sized dot of thermal paste to the center of the processor's Integrated Heat Spreader (IHS).
- Mount Cooler: Position the CPU cooler over the processor, aligning the mounting holes or clips with the motherboard. For stock Intel coolers, push down on each of the four pins until they click into place. For aftermarket coolers, follow the manufacturer's specific instructions.
- So okun afẹfẹ pọ: Connect the CPU cooler's fan cable to the "CPU_FAN" header on your motherboard.
5. Awọn ilana Iṣiṣẹ
- Bata Ibẹrẹ: After installing all components, connect your monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Power on the system. The system should boot to the BIOS/UEFI interface or your operating system.
- Iṣeto BIOS/UEFI: Enter the BIOS/UEFI setup (usually by pressing DEL or F2 during boot). Verify that the processor is recognized correctly. Ensure memory settings (XMP/DOCP) are configured as desired.
- Fifi sori Awakọ: Install the latest chipset drivers for your motherboard from the motherboard manufacturer's website. This ensures proper communication between the CPU and other system components.
- Eto isesise: Install or boot into your preferred operating system.
- Abojuto iwọn otutu: Use system monitoring software to keep an eye on CPU temperatures, especially during initial use and under load, to ensure the cooling solution is performing adequately.
6. Itọju
Proper maintenance helps prolong the life and performance of your processor and system.
- Yiyọ eruku kuro: Periodically clean dust from the CPU cooler heatsink and fan using compressed air. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
- Lẹẹ igbona: Thermal paste typically lasts for several years. If you notice consistently high CPU temperatures, consider reapplying fresh thermal paste. This involves carefully removing the CPU cooler, cleaning off old paste from both the CPU and cooler base, and applying new paste.
- BIOS/Driver Updates: Keep your motherboard's BIOS and chipset drivers updated to ensure optimal compatibility and performance.
