What does this product do?

This product includes a CPU cooler fan that is designed to create a cooling environment for the internal system of a computing device. The CPU cooler is installed internally into the computer and draws cooling air into the internal area of the computing device. The CPU fan itself will usually be enclosed in a cage and will have a variable number of blades. In addition to the CPU cooler is a heatsink, which is a passive heat exchanger designed to dissipate heat away from a device. Heatsinks are usually used to cool power transistors and optoelectronics which are not designed to moderate its own temperature. As a whole unit, the product will be attached to the motherboard.

What variations of this product are available?

This product is available for many types of computing systems including desktops and laptop units. This product is also available from a number of brands including Dynatron, StarTech, Noctua, and Evercool. While these products may vary by size, brand, and cooling ability, each unit will have a G34 Socket attachment capability. Each model will also have a cooling fan unit and a heatsink.

How do you install this product?
  1. Unplug the computing device and properly ground yourself. Grounding will prevent you from producing static electricity.
  2. Open the device and expose the motherboard. If there is already a preinstalled Socket G34 CPU cooler fan with the heatsink, remove that unit and place it on the side.
  3. Clean the area where the new cooler fan and heatsink is to be installed. Carefully line up the pins of the unit to the insertion pins on the motherboard and attach the CPU cooler fan and heatsink.
  4. Close the computer and turn on the system and check to see if the CPU cooler fan and heatsink are working properly.
