Installing the Processor and Heatsink 1. Unscrew the screws holding down Force Frame in the sequence of 3-2-1. The screws are numbered on the force frame next to each screw hole.
  • Page 23 Chapter 2: Installation 2. The spring-loaded force frame will raise up after the last screw securing it (#1) is removed. Gently allow it to lift up to its stopping position. 3. Lift the rail frame up by gripping the lift tabs near the front end of the rail frame. While keeping a secure grip of the rail frame, lift it to a position so you can do the next step of removing the external cap.
  • Page 24 H12SSG-AN6 User's Manual 4. Remove the external cap from the Rail Frame by pulling it upwards through the rail guides on the rail frame. External Cap PnP Cover Cap 5. The CPU package is shipped from the factory with the blue carrier frame pre-assembled.
  • Page 25 Chapter 2: Installation Note: You can only install the CPU inside the socket in one direction with the handle at the top. Make sure that it is properly inserted into the CPU socket before closing the rail frame plate. If it doesn't close properly, do not force it as it may damage your CPU. Instead, open the rail frame plate again, and double-check that the CPU is aligned properly.
  • Page 26 H12SSG-AN6 User's Manual 9. Gently lower the force frame down onto the rail frame and hold it in place until it is seated in the Socket housing. Note that the force frame is spring loaded and has to be held in place before it is secured. Important: Use a torque screwdriver, set it at 16.1 kgf-cm (14.0 lbf-in) with a Torx T20 screw head bit, to prevent damage to the CPU.
  • Page 27 Chapter 2: Installation 11. After the force frame is secured and the CPU package is in place, now you must install the heatsink to the frame. Lower the heatsink down till it rests securely over the four screw holes on CPU package on the socket frame. 12.
