Upgrading Microprocessor
Your system is fitted with a processor installed in a socket LGA 1366. The server may
have another CPU installed in addition to the factory-installed CPU.
Caution:
•
CPUs are easily affected by static electricity. Before handling a CPU,
discharge the static electricity of your body by touching a metallic frame
section of the server. Do not touch the CPU pins with bare hands. In
addition, do not put a CPU directly on a desk. For more details on static
electricity, see “Static Precautions” on page 96.
• Do not operate the system until you have confirmed that the additionally
installed CPU is in normal state.
• Make sure to use a CPU authorized by the manufacturer. Installing a
third-party CPU may cause a failure of the CPU as well as the
motherboard.
