- 1.4.1 Installing the CPU
- 1. Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.
- 2. Press the load lever with your thumb (A), then move it to the left (B) until it is released from the retention tab.
- 3. Lift the load lever in the direction of the arrow to a 135º angle.
- 4. Lift the load plate with your thumb and forefinger to a 100º angle (A), then push the PnP cap from the load plate window to remove (B).
- 5. Position the CPU over the socket, making sure that the gold triangle is on the bottom-left corner of the socket then fit the socket alignment key into the CPU notch.
- 6. Close the load plate (A), then push the load lever (B) until it snaps into the retention tab.
- 7. If installing a dual-core CPU, connect the chassis fan cable to the CHA_FAN1 connector to ensure system stability.
- 1.4.2 Installing the CPU Heatsink and Fan
- 1. Place the heatsink on top of the installed CPU, making sure that the four fasteners match the holes on the motherboard.
- 2. Push down two fasteners at a time in a diagonal sequence to secure the heatsink and fan assembly in place.
- 3. Connect the CPU fan cable to the connector on the motherboard labelled
- 1.4.3 Uninstalling the CPU Heatsink and Fan
- 1. Disconnect the CPU fan cable from the connector on the motherboard.
- 2. Rotate each fastener counterclockwise.
- 3. Pull up two fasteners at a time in a diagonal sequence to disengage the heatsink and fan assembly from the motherboard
- 4. Carefully remove the heatsink and fan assembly from the motherboard.
- 5. Rotate each fastener clockwise to ensure correct orientation when reinstalling.
