The CPU-1 processor + CPU heat sink must be installed first. The CPU-2 heat sink must be installed at all times, with or
without a processor installed. When no processor is installed in a socket, one of the provided black mylar spacers
should be attached to the top side of the plastic processor socket cover. This is a serviceability feature that identifies
that a socket has no processor present when only a heat sink is installed.
