Installing the CPU
The IB828 board supports a Socket AM2 (940-pin) processor socket for AMD
Athlon ™ 64 / Athlon™ 64 x2 (dual core) / Sempron™ processors.
To install the CPU, unlock first the socket by pressing the lever sideways, then lift it up
to a 90-degree angle as shown below. Then, position the CPU above the socket such
that the CPU corner aligns with the gold triangle matching the socket corner with a
small triangle. Carefully insert the CPU into the socket and push down the lever to
secure the CPU. Then, install the heat sink and fan.
Note: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in total contact to avoid CPU
overheating problem that would cause your system to hang or be unstable.
