4.

Remove the DIMM air baffle (see “Removing and installing the DIMM air baffle” on page 31).

5.

Remove the heat sink.

CAUTION:
The heat sink may become very hot during normal operation. Allow time for the heat sink to cool
down before you touch it.

a.

Loosen the screw on one side of the heat sink to break the seal with the microprocessor.

b.

Press firmly on the captive screws and loosen them with a screwdriver.

c.

Use your fingers to gently pull the heat sink from the microprocessor.

6.

Lift the heat sink out of the server. After removal, place the heat sink on its side on a clean, flat
surface.

7.

Release the microprocessor retention latch

2

by pressing down on the end, moving it to the side,

and releasing it to the open (up) position.

8.

Open the microprocessor bracket frame

3

by lifting up the tab on the top edge. Keep the bracket

frame in the open position.

Attention:

Handle the microprocessor carefully. Dropping the microprocessor during removal can

damage the contacts. Also, contaminants on the microprocessor contacts, such as oil from your skin,
can cause connection failures between the contacts and the socket.

9.

Remove the microprocessor:

a.

Carefully lift the microprocessor

1

straight up and out of the socket, without touching the

microprocessor contacts.

b.

Place the microprocessor on a static-protective surface
