It should only fit on one way, but the trick here is to look for the serial number.
Place the heat sink back on the new processor. As Arctic Silver recommends: "less is more". A good tutorial on best practices can be read here. Apply a small drop of Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound to the new processor (about the size of 1 and 1/2 grains of rice). This might be a good time to place the old processor in the new processor's packaging and put it away in case you ever need it again (like if you ever need to return the EX470 to HP for servicing). Lower the lever on the socket to lock the processor in place. If it doesn't fall in, gently realign until it does. Do not push, jam, force or otherwise cajole it. Pick up the processor (by the green corners or sides) so that it's triangle is in the lower left hand corner and now you may bring it to the socket, lining up the pins with the holes. The triangle on the socket is faintly embossed on the white plastic, in the lower left hand corner (so faint it evades photography) while the triangle on the processor is copper (see photo). How do you orient it? Note the key indication (a small triangle) on both the socket and processor. The less handling time with this little brain, the better. Before you even bring the processor near the socket, orient it correctly so that you can just pick it up and drop it in. Again, as with removing the old processor, beware that the pins bend very easily if you are not careful. Carefully open the new box containing our new processor. Assuming that you will be saving this old processor, handle with care and set aside. Beware that the pins bend very easily, so you should lift straight out of the holes. You should now be able to easily remove the processor. Move the lever until it snaps into place, so that it is perpendicular to the motherboard. Move the silver lever that locks in the processor, by pulling it outward, to clear the incredibly small white plastic tab holding it down, and then up. It is recommended that you use isopropyl alcohol, but as I was fresh out, I settled for Vodka. Now is a good time to thoroughly clean off the old thermal paste as we will be reusing the heat sink. The heat sink is bonded to the processor with thermal paste (which acts like, well, paste) so a little resistance can be expected. Be careful not to damage the motherboard, memory socket or the heat sink. Gently twist the heat sink back and forth a few times and then use a flat screwdriver to gently pry it upward. To do this, use a medium Phillips head screw driver to loosen the 4 spring loaded screws.
Next we will need to remove the processor's heat sink. Note: Click on this and any subsequent picture to enlarge. This will help when we remove/replace the heat sink. With the motherboard removed and on a work surface, unplug the power supply (the large 20 pin connector) and bend it out of the way. First, follow steps 1-14 of that article to remove the motherboard and the memory. In my article " Upgrade the Memory in your HP EX470 or EX475", I've already explained how to disassemble the HP EX470 so I won't waste column inches here.I paid $2.49 for this one at my local hardware store. Installation Instructions Before you begin, do yourself a favor and run out and get a #00 Phillips head screwdriver. Just check the box and click "Add item with Selected" which will add both the processor and the thermal grease to your cart.
Normally I skip by all of these up-sell items, but this one you do really need.
Everyone that I know of who has ever built their own PC recommends Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound and NewEgg has conveniently placed it near the bottom on the screen as one of the "Essentials". So you should probably check both Newegg and. It appears as thought the LE-1640 had been discontinued on Newegg, but they now sell it again and for only $35. The processor we will be using is the 2.6GHz AMD LE-1640 Orleans (45w) which can be ordered from for the bargain basement price of only $51 ( click here to order). What you'll need (or Get out your Credit Card) You alone are responsible for your actions. Although this operation worked for me and my particular computer, I can not guarantee and will not be held liable if it does not work for you or causes damage to your computer. Replacing the processor will most definitely void your warranty.
