I. Preparing the motherboard
1. You must uninstall your MB prior to installing the MCX462-Uheat sink.
2. Install standoffs in MB
Determine which standoff washers to use, depending on the mounting holes sizes of your particular MB model:
•Large holes .230”(5.8mm) diameter, use in the following order: standoff, black fiber washer, .220x.046 Nylon spacers (fits
inside the MB hole), then on the other side of the MB, black fiber washer, and lock-nut.
•Small grounded holes .150”(3.8mm) diameter (you can recognize grounding by a silver ring around the holes), use in the
following order: standoff directly to the MB (black fiber washer is NOT necessary), then on the other side of the MB, black
fiber washer, and lock-nut.
•Small holes, NOT grounded (bare circuit board): you must use black fiber washers, or damage to the MB may occur: use
in the following order: standoff, black fiber washer, then on the other side of the MB, black fiber washer, and lock-nut.

Install standoff in each one of the
four holes surrounding the socket.
Keep the standoff & washer centered
over the MB holes, and secure with
hex lock nuts on backside of the
MB.
3. Re-install the MB inside the case.
II. Heat sink Installation
1. The case should be laying flat on a table.
2. Insert the processor into the socket, and lightly coat the processor core with the provided Arctic Aluminathermal compound. Only
a paper thin coat is necessary. It should be applied using preferably a razor blade, or a credit card, held between thumb and index at
a 45°angle. It is critical to ascertain that the entire core is covered with a uniform coat of thermal compound. Thermal performance will
dramatically decrease if any portion of the core is not covered by thermal compound.

3. Place the bare MCX462+heat sink
over the CPU as shown in the picture to
the right. The step side should be
located over the socket’s cam box.
Keep the heat sink mounting holes
lined up with the standoffs.

4. Prepare 4 assembliescomposed of (1) 1 ½”
screw, (2) .230x.096 Nylon spacers, and (1) spring
as shown in the picture to the left. Drop each
assembly in the heat sink mounting holes. While
gently pressing at the center of the heat sink, start
tightening the screws gradually in a crisscross
pattern until you feel that they reach the bottom of
the standoff. A “finger-tight” lock is sufficient.
Over tightening may result in stripping the nylon
hex nut. Conversely, adjustments such as
tightening the screws only partially are strictly
prohibited. Such attempts will result in improper
contact between the CPU core and the heat sink,
and result in CPU overheating.
5. Fan Installation: Place the fan over the heat sink. The airflow should
be blowing down (fan label facing down). Place the fan guard over the
fan. Tighten the four 6-32 x 2” screws. The fan is equipped with two
connectors: a four pin molex connector which must be connected to
the power supply, and a 3 pin single wire connector which connects
to the MB fan sensor header.
6. Optional fan rheostat: a rheostat model # RH070 is sold separately,
and allows to adjust the fan speed. It connects between the fan power
connector and the power supply connector. Please consult your
distributor if you wish to purchase this item. Reducing the fan speed
reduces fan noise up to 9 dBA. It also reduces thermal performance,
and will affect overclocking performance accordingly. It is however
perfectly appropriate for non overclocked processors.

III. Final inspection
Now that the heat sink is installed, startup your computer, go into the BIOS and observe the CPU temperature. Under normal ambient
temperature conditions, the processor temperature should never exceed 55°C (130 °F). If it does, shut down the computer immediately,
and review your entire installation. Troubleshooting help is available on our web site at www.swiftnets.com, or by calling customer support at
562-595-8009.
Uninstall note: CPU removal from some socket motherboards
Once in place, the standoffs may slightly interfere with CPU removal in some motherboards:
Depending on the manufacturers, sockets use either a plastic locking arm, or a metal locking arm. Sockets using a plastic locking arm require
that the arm be slightly pried open at the center in order to release it from its retaining tab. This can easily be done by inserting a thin screwdriver
in between the socket body and the arm’s mid-section, and by slightly twisting the screwdriver in either direction, while pulling on the arm. This
will slightly arch the mid-section of the arm, and release it from its locking tab.

5. Install standoffs in MB.

Do not install the Intelstock
retention mechanism (black plastic
frame). Remove it if it is already
installed.
Install standoff in each one of the four
holes surrounding the socket. Keep the
standoff centered over the MB holes, and
secure with nylon hex nuts on backside of
the MB. If you are going to
assemble/disassemble the heat sink
frequently, we recommend finishing the
installation by putting a drop of “Crazy
Glue “ at the junction between standoff &
MB, and between nylon hex nut & MB.
This will lock the standoff onto the MB,
and further prevent it from spinning lose
during frequent assembly and
disassembly operations.
6. Re-install the MB inside the case.

1. Install the two mounting brackets onto the heat
sink, using the provided 4-40 x 1/4” socket screws:

2. For the next step, the case should be laying flat on

3. Insert the processor into the socket, and lightly coat the processor core
with high quality thermal compound. Only a paper thin coat is
necessary. It should be applied using preferably a razor blade, or a credit
card, held between thumb and index at a 45 degree angle. It is critical to
ascertain that the entire core is covered with a uniform coat of thermal
compound. Thermal performance will dramatically decrease if any portion of
the core is not covered by thermal compound. We recommend Arctic
Silver or similar high end compound for superior thermal conductivity.
4. Place the bare MCX462-U heat sink over the CPU as shown in the
picture below. The step side should be located over the socket’s cam box.
Keep the heat sink mounting holes lined up with the standoffs.

5. Prepare 4 assembliescomposed of a 1 ½” screw, 2 nylon flat washers,
and 1 spring as shown in the picture to the right. Drop each assembly in

heat sink, start tightening the screws gradually in a crisscross pattern
until you feel that they reach the bottom of the standoff. A “finger-tight”
