Hardware Installation

This section will assist you in quickly installing your system hardware. Wear a wrist ground strap
before handling components. Electrostatic discharge may damage your system components.

CPU Processor Installation

This mainboard supports AMD
Socket A (Socket 462 Pin package). Before building your system, we suggest you visit the AMD
website and review the processor installation procedures. http://www.amd.com
CPU Socket A Configuration Steps:
1. Locate the CPU socket on your mainboard and nudge the lever away from the socket. Then lift
the lever to a 90-degree angle.
2. On the socket, locate the corner that has the pin-1 receptor. This corner will have a cut-corner on
the rectangular shaped pattern of pin holes on the socket.
Match the corner on the CPU with the pin-1 receptor on the socket and lower the CPU onto the
socket. The bottom of the CPU should be flush with the face of the socket.
3. Lower the lever until it snaps back into position. This will lock down the CPU.
4. Smear thermal grease on top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan onto the CPU and use the clasps on
the fan to attach it to the socket. Finally, extend the power cable from the fan and insert it onto
the CPUFAN adapter.
Attention
Overheating may damage the CPU and other sensitive components.
Please check the installation completely before starting the system.
Make sure the heatsink and the CPU fan are properly installed.
