hey,
I'm running a pentium 4 2.67GHz processor on an ASUS P5RD1-VM motherboard...recently while cleaning the processor's fan/heatsink assembly i detached the fan from the processor thus creating the need for me to reapply the thermal interface material(TIM) before reinstalling it...i bought some 'dow corning' TIM from intel and their site gives directions for its use....however i was a little confused by one of the diagrams given on that page
http://support.intel.com/support/processors/sb/CS-023107.htm
could anyone tell me what exactly Figure 1 is supposed to be...
Thanks
