A64 DTR Heatsink and Bios question

I am looking at building a single CPU server and like the idea of the DTR A64 or Mobile A64. With the Integrated Heat Spreader gone...do I need to do anything different to ensure proper contact with my Heatsink or just normal clip pressure is going to take care of it?

Additionally will I need to boot up on a newcastle THEN bios flash to a new bios then put the new mobile in??

Thanks
 
i think it depends on the board you use. you need to make sure that you use a board that does have mobile or DTR chip support as some boards do not support DTR's...

As for the contact... i'm not sure but i hear there maybe a contact issue. i'm sure someone has the answer to this.
