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

Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the
motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA775 socket.
