Chapter 2: Hardware Installations
2.1 CPU ASSEMBLY
A. Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step 1:
Remove the socket protection cap.
Step 2:
Pull the socket locking lever out from the socket and then raise the lever up to a
90-degree angle.
Step 3:
Look for the triangular cut edge on socket, and the golden dot on CPU should point
towards this triangular cut edge. The CPU will fit only in the correct orientation.
Step 4:
Hold the CPU down firmly, and then lower the lever to locked position to complete the
installation.
Step 5: Put the CPU Fan and heatsink assembly on the CPU and buckle it on the
retention frame. Connect the CPU FAN power cable into the JCFAN1. This completes
the installation.
