The Processor Carrier Assembly

The processor carrier assembly is comprised of the processor and the processor carrier.
To create the processor carrier assembly, please follow the steps below:
Note: Before installation, be sure to review the Static-Sensitive Devices section earlier in
this chapter.
1. Hold the processor with the gold pins (LGA lands) facing down. Locate the gold triangle
at the corner of the processor and the corresponding hollowed triangle on the processor
carrier as shown below. These triangles indicate the location of pin 1.
2. Turn the processor over (with the gold pins up). Locate the CPU keys on the processor
and the four latches on the carrier as shown below.
