bent away from the heatsink.

Intel Clip
Apply thermal grease just enough to thinly cover the CPU surface. Then, insert four Silver
Bolts (type A) through the outermost Intel Clip holes, and using the 3/32” Allen Wrench,
fasten the Silver Bolts incrementally while alternating between them.
Please make sure to use the
Bolts with correct color and
thread length as they can
appear quite similar.
