Installing the CPU

To install a CPU:

1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.

1.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with a surface mount 939-pin Zero Insertion Force

(ZIF) socket designed for the AMD Athlon™ 64FX or AMD Athlon 64™

processor.

The 128-bit-wide data paths of these processors can run applications

faster than processors with only 32-bit or 64-bit wide data paths.

Take note of the marked corner

(with gold triangle) on the CPU. This

mark should match a specific corner

on the socket to ensure correct

installation.
