Zorluk: ZorCPU Architecture Cooling and Sockets

A field technician is assembling a high-performance workstation for 3D rendering. The build features a multi-core processor utilizing a Land Grid Array (LGA) socket architecture and a heavy-duty active air cooling assembly. Which of the following procedures must the technician perform during processor and heatsink installation to ensure proper physical engagement and effective thermal transfer? (Select TWO.)

  1. Align the orientation triangle on the corner of the CPU packaging with the corresponding triangle indicator printed on the LGA motherboard socket frame.Cevap
  2. Apply thermal interface material evenly across the top of the integrated heat spreader (IHS) before securing the active heatsink base.Cevap
  3. C
    Inspect the array of delicate contact pins protruding directly from the bottom surface of the CPU substrate prior to mounting.
  4. D
    Calculate the power supply wattage requirement by using only the CPU Thermal Design Power (TDP) value as the maximum system power consumption.

Cevap

The technician must align the orientation triangle on the CPU packaging with the LGA socket indicator and apply thermal interface material between the CPU integrated heat spreader (IHS) and heatsink cold plate.
Correct installation of an LGA processor requires keying the CPU orientation marker with the motherboard socket indicator to prevent pin damage upon locking the lever. Additionally, thermal interface material must be placed on the CPU integrated heat spreader (IHS) to fill air gaps and ensure efficient heat transfer to the heatsink base.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify Land Grid Array (LGA) mechanical characteristics
Recognize that LGA sockets house the spring-loaded pins on the motherboard, while the CPU package has flat contact pads.
Ensures proper handling so pins inside the socket are not bent during insertion.
2
Align processor keying notches and orientation markers
Position the CPU so the gold alignment triangle matches the socket reference mark before lowering the load lever.
Prevents catastrophic physical pin damage caused by misaligned CPU installation.
3
Prepare thermal dissipation layer
Dispense a small amount of thermal compound onto the center of the CPU integrated heat spreader (IHS).
Thermal paste eliminates microscopic air pockets between the IHS surface and the heatsink base plate.
