What is the correct order for installing a processor for proper cooling? • Heat sink, CPU thermal paste, fan • CPU, thermal paste, heat sink, fan • CPU, heat sink, thermal paste, fan • Thermal paste, CPU, heat sink, fan |
• Create a pressurized system inside the case |
Which of the following accurately describes case fans? (Select two.) • To reduce dust and debris, they should all be exhausting hot air • Do not have a specific design for moving air • Only necessary on high-end gaming systems • Create a pressurized system inside the case • Pull cool air from the front and blow hot air out the back |
• Keep the ambient temperature below 80F. |
Which of the following will ensure optimal system cooling? (Select three.) • Remove the side panel on the case. • Keep the ambient temperature below 80F. • Stack hard drives next to each other. • Leave space between the case and any walls or obstructions. • Bundle cables together and secure unused cables to the case. • Remove unused expansion slot covers to increase air flow. |
More reliable than active heat sinks |
Which of the following characteristics accurately describe passive heat sinks? • More reliable than active heat sinks • Used on high-end video cards • Used by liquid-based cooling systems • More efficient than active heat sinks |
Passive heat sink |
Which of the following thermal solutions might you find on memory modules? • Active heat sink • Liquid cooling • Passive heat sink • Surface area dissipation |
A) Active heat sink |
Match the cooling system types with the appropriate characteristics and uses. Each cooling system type can be used once, more than once, or not at all. A) Used for cooling high-end video cards B) Used for cooling high-end gaming computers C) Has a fan attached to the heat sink D) Used for cooling CPUs E) Exhausts hot air out of the back of the case F) Used for cooling memory modules G) Used for cooling high-performance systems H) Has no fan attached to the heat sink |
CPU |
To which of the following object should thermal paste be applied? • Heat sink • CPU • CPU power connector • Fan • Motherboard |
• Make sure the head sink is properly mounted and has thermal paste. |
You have just finished upgrading the CPU in your desktop system. After running the system for about 10 minutes, the system locks up and automatically restarts. Which should you do first to troubleshoot the problem? (Select two.) • Check the power supply voltage switch. • Make sure the heat sink is properly mounted and has thermal paste. • Remove any uneeded components and run the system. • Check the CPU fan power. • Replace the power supply. |
Removing the side panel from case. |
You have a system that has been overheating and shutting off. Which of the following actions will not help to keep the system cool? • Switching to a liquid-based cooling system. • Installing heat spreaders on the memory modules. • Cleaning dust and debris from inside the case. • Mounting the hard drives further apart. • Removing the side panel from case. |
Overheated processor |
Which of the following would most likely cause random system lockups? • Overheated processor • Faulty mouse or keyboard • Loose monitor cable • Failing network adapter |
