Thank you
1. Why shouldn’t you use a screwdriver to remove a heat sink?
2. What is the minimum voltage of an electrostatic discharge (ESD) that you can feel?
3. What is the voltage range in which ESD can affect electronic components?
4. What was the operating temperature of the CPU?
5. Why is it important to double-check the bottom of the heat sink before attaching it to the CPU socket?
Q1. Why shouldn’t you use a screwdriver to remove a heat
sink?
Answer:------
Because it might be damage the CPU and/or the
motherboard.
Q2. What is the minimum voltage of an electrostatic discharge
(ESD) that you can feel?
Answer:------
3000 Volts or more.
Q3. What is the voltage range in which ESD can affect electronic
components?
Answer:------
Most components are designed and built to work at very low voltage.
ESD can be of amagnitude of 1000 times greater. So if this voltage
can find its way into a circuit it can permanently damage the
circuit or worst yet weaken it for a premature
failure.
Q4. What was the operating temperature of the CPU?
Answer:------
The majority of today's desktop processors should not exceed
temperatures of 95C and most will run between 70-90C
Q5. Why is it important to double-check the bottom of the heat
sink before attaching it to the CPU socket?
Answer:------
It's important to double check the bottom of the heat sink before
attaching it to the CPU socketto ensure proper installation. The
process is simple and it's done by installing the CPU into
CPUsocket on the motherboard first which will ensure the pins are
installed correctly as well foreasier CPU install.
