Carefully replace the heatsink on top of the processor, taking care to ensure the fan connector is properly connected.

Begin to screw down the bolts again. You'll want to tighten in the same back and forth pattern to apply equal pressure across the processor.

DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! It is very important to pay attention to the torque on the screws. Once a screw no longer wants to tighten with ease, back off.
