Installation
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

In order to install Prima Boss II in your system, you first must install a metallic backplate on the solder side of your motherboard, where four (sockets 775, 1156, 1366, AM3, AM2+ and AM2) or two (sockets 939 and 754) screws are attached. After that, you just need to apply thermal compound, put the cooler in place and fasten the spring screws that hold the cooler in place.

In Figure 13 we can see the cooler installed on our motherboard. It didn't interfere with the motherboard heatsink, but the fan stayed over the first memory slot, preventing the use of tall memory modules on it.

In Figure 14 we can see the cooler installed in our case. The fan glows blue when powered.
