Installing and Replacing Desktop Board Components

Installing the Processor Fan Heat Sink

Intel Desktop Board DX58SO2 has mounting holes for a processor fan heat sink. For

instructions on how to attach the processor fan heat sink to the Desktop Board, refer

to the boxed processor manual or boxed thermal solution manual.

Connecting the Processor Fan Heat Sink Cable

Connect the processor fan heat sink cable to the 4-pin processor fan header (see

Figure 14). A fan with a 4-pi

n connector as shown in Figure 14, A is recommended;

however, a fan with a 3-pin connector (Figure 14, B) can be used. However, since the

fan

with a 3-pin connector cannot use the onboard fan control, the fan will always

operate at full speed.
