Attaching the Non-F Model Processor to the Processor Clip to
Create the Processor Carrier Assembly
To properly install the CPU into the processor clip, please follow the steps below:
1. Locate pin 1 (notch A), which is the triangle located on the top of the processor clip.
Also locate notch B and notch C on the processor clip.
2. Locate pin 1 (notch A), which is the triangle on the substrate of the CPU. Also, locate
notch B and notch C on the CPU as shown below.
3. Align pin 1 (the triangle on the substrate) of the CPU with pin 1 (the triangle) of the
processor clip. Once they are aligned, carefully insert the CPU into the processor clip by
sliding notch B of the CPU into notch B of the processor clip, and sliding notch C of the
CPU into notch C of the processor clip.
4. Examine all corners of the CPU to ensure that it is properly seated on the processor
clip. Once the CPU is securely attached to the processor clip, the processor carrier
assembly is created.
Note: Please exercise extreme caution when handling the CPU. Do not touch the
CPU LGA-lands to avoid damaging the LGA-lands or the CPU. Be sure to wear ESD
gloves when handling components.
