NOTE:The system board can be removed and installed along with the ethernet and audio board, USB board, and fan and heat sink-assembly. This simplifies the removal and installation procedure and avoids breaking the thermal bond between the system board and heat sink.
About this task
CAUTION:The heat sink may become hot during normal operation. Allow sufficient time for the heat sink to cool before you touch it.
NOTE:For maximum cooling of the processor, do not touch the heat transfer areas on the heat sink. The oils in your skin can reduce the heat transfer capability of the thermal grease.
The following image(s) indicate the location of the fan and heat-sink assembly and provides a visual representation of the removal procedure.
Steps
Disconnect the left-fan cable and right-fan cable from the system board.
Turn over the system-board assembly.
In reverse sequential order (6>5>4>3>2>1), loosen the six captive screws (M2x4) that secure the fan and heat-sink assembly to the system board.
Lift the fan and heat-sink assembly off the system board.
