SUPERWORKSTATION 7033A-T Manual
IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cord last and always remove it
before adding, removing or changing any hardware components. Make
sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install
the heatsink. The X5DAL-TG2 can support either one or two Intel Xeon
processors of up to 3.06 GHz. You will need to install Xeon Mounting
plates under the board. If installing one processor only, install it into CPU
socket #1. (Note: pictures below show 603-pin sockets.)

5-2 PGA Processor and Heatsink Installation
When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the
motherboard on a conductive surface, which can damage the
BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up.
1. Lift the lever on the CPU socket.
Lift the lever completely or you will
damage the CPU socket when
power is applied. (Install a proces-
sor into CPU #1 socket first.)
2. Install the CPU in the socket.
Make sure that pin 1 of the CPU is
seated on pin 1 of the socket (both
corners are marked with a triangle).
When using only one CPU, install it
into CPU socket #1 (CPU socket #2
is automatically disabled if only one
CPU is used).
3. Press the lever down until you hear it *click* into the locked position. See
Figure 5-1 for pictures of the 604-pin CPU socket before and after the
processor is installed.

4. Apply the proper amount of thermal compound to the CPU die and place
the heatsink on top of the CPU. Make sure the heatsink sits completely flat
on the CPU. If not completely flat, the space between the two will degrade
the heat dissipation function of the heatsink, which may cause the proces-
sor to overheat.
