Central Processing Unit (Cpu) - Intel EMX-965GME User Manual

1.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with a surface mount 478-pin designed for the Intel® socket 479P
Core Duo / Core Solo / Core 2 Duo CPU with 65nm process.
Take one of the marked corner (with gold
triangle) on the CPU. This mark should
match a specific corner on the socket to
ensure correct installation.
Make sure the AC power is off before you install the CPU.
If installing a dual-core CPU, connect the CPU fan cable to the
CPU_FAN1 connector to ensure system stability.
Your boxed Intel® socket 479P Core Duo / Core Solo / Core 2
Duo CPU with 65nm process package should come with
installation instructions for the CPU, heatsink, and the retention
mechanism. If the instructions in this section do not match the
CPU documentation, follow the latter.
Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap
is on the socket and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact
your retailer immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see
any damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard
components. Your place of purchase or local distributor will
shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is
shipment/transit-related.
Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. Your place of
purchase or local distributor will process Return Merchandise
Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with
the cap on the socket.
The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket
contacts resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or
misplacement/loss/ incorrect removal of the PnP cap.
