P2 Heatsink To Celeron Conversion

cel_3.jpg (44240 bytes)

Begin by removing the fans off the VEK 12. A simple Phillips screwdriver is all you need to do this. Don't forget, it's always nice to have a clean work surface.

Once the fans are off you can do the removal of the Pentium II mounting clips. Since we're using the VEK 12 on a Celeron we won't need those clips anymore.

Take your Celeron and line it up with the heatsink like the above photo. Use the Celeron mounting holes as a guide to tap some starter holes. Then take the drill and drill the holes out. Just take it slow and easy and all will be fine.

Now it's time to put the tap into action. For those that don't know, the tap makes the threads that the bolts will screw into. Notice that the 4 holes on the heatsink lines up with the 4 holes of the Celeron.
