The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the

CPU into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.

Step 4. When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push

down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab

to indicate that it is locked.

2.4 Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink

AMD Ahtlon/Duron family CPUs with a speed of 600 MHz and higher require

larger heatsink and cooling fan. Thermal grease between the CPU and the

heatsink is also needed to improve heat transfer. Make sure that the CPU and

the heatsink are securely fastened and in good contact with each other. For

proper installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of vendors of

CPU fan and heatsink.

SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) has 168 pins

and DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM DIMM has 184 pins.

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or

removing DIMMs or the system components.

168-pin RAM

The 168-pin SDRAM DIMM (black) and 184-pin DDR DIMM (blue) can be easily

distinguished by the fool-proof design.

Please do not insert both 168-pin SDRAM DIMM and 184-pin DDR

DIMM at the same time. To optimize the compatibility, it is not

recommended to use two different models of the DIMMs at the same

time.
