Back plate Assembly

S2912-E follows AMD 1U/2S CPU keep out zoon spec, please use 1U RevF

back plate on S2912-E, the distance of two mounting hole use to lock the CPU

heatsink is 4.1 inch. The back plate is mounted on the backside of the

motherboard and enhances local stiffness to support shock and vibration loads

acting on the heat sink. The back plate assembly prevents excessive

motherboard stress in the area near the processor. Without a back plate,

excessive stress could cause serious damage to electrical connections of the

processor socket and integrated circuit packages surrounding the processor.

The back plate also serves as a reinforcement plate for the LGA socket.

While doing the installation, be careful in holding the components. Follow these

instructions to install your back plate:

1. Remove the release liner from the back plate.

2. Align the PEM nuts on the back plate to the holes on the reverse side

of the PCB.

3. First, insert the taller upper & lower middle PEM nuts through the

holes of the PCB. The remaining four shorter PEM nuts should

automatically fit the 4 holes on the PCB as shown in the following

pictures.

Let 2 upper &

lower-middle PEM

nuts pass

through the

holes.

4 PEM nuts

should fit 4 holes.
