Compatibility and installation
- Check exact socket kit and board compatibility; do not assume workstation/server sockets are supported.
- Measure the 158 mm height and verify memory/VRM clearance; the front fan position can be raised to clear memory, which increases overall height.
- Connect both 4-pin fans through the manufacturer arrangement and keep the combined current within the motherboard/controller rating.
Service notes
With power off, hold both fans stationary while removing dust. If the heatsink is lifted, clean and renew thermal compound; use the included mounting sequence and inspect clips before reuse.
