[title] Remove the heatsink screws
[* black] Use a Phillips driver to loosen and remove the two screws securing the heatsink to the motherboard:
[* red] One ***captive*** 3.5 mm screw
[* orange] One 3.4 mm screw
[* icon_note] No, your eyes don't deceive you! The third heatsink screw was removed earlier in the disassembly: it doubles as [guide|148904|the hidden board shield screw|stepid=306464].
+[* icon_note] When reinstalling the heatsink, make sure to tighten the screws in the order marked on the bracket: the 3.4 mm screw on the bottom marked ***1*** first, and the captive 3.5 mm screw on the left marked ***2*** second. The 3.4 mm screw marked ***3*** is reinstalled with the board shield last.
