5.5 Heatsink Volumetric Keepout Zone Guidelines
When designing a system platform it is necessary to ensure sufficient space is left for a heatsink to
be installed without mechanical interference. Due to the large number of proprietary heatsink
designs, Intel cannot specify a keepout zone that covers all passive and active-fan heatsinks. It is
the system designer’s responsibility to consider their own proprietary solution when designing the
desired keepout zone in their system platform. Please refer to the Intel

Processor
(PPGA) at 466 MHz Thermal Solutions Guidelines (Order Number 245156) for further guidance.
Note: The heatsink keepout zones found in Section 6.0, “Boxed Processor Specifications” on page 110
refer specifically to the Boxed Processor’s active-fan heatsink. This does not reflect the worst-case
dimensions that may exist with other third party passive or active-fan heatsinks. Contact your
vendor of choice for their passive or active-fan heatsink dimensions to ensure that mechanical
interference with system platform components does not occur.
