3.3 Aplicar pasta térmica
Clean the CPU surface thoroughly. Apply a small amount of the included thermal paste to the center of your CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS). A pea-sized dot is generally sufficient.
3.4 Mount the Pump/CPU Block
Carefully place the pump/CPU block onto the CPU, aligning it with the standoffs. Secure it with the provided thumb screws, tightening them in a cross pattern until snug. Avoid overtightening.
