Notes:

Check that the plastic protective cover is on the processor socket and none of the socket
pins are bent. If they are, contact your retailer.

When handling the processor, avoid touching or placing direct pressure on the LGA lands

to the processor or socket, which may require manufacturer repairs.

Thermal grease is pre-applied on a new heatsink. No additional thermal grease is needed.
