2-3-1 About AMD AM3+ CPU Socket

This motherboard provides an AM3+ socket that supports compatible AMD
AM3/AM3+ processor.
The CPU that comes with the motherboard should have a cooling FAN attached to
prevent overheating. If this is not the case, then purchase a correct cooling FAN
before you turn on your system.
WARNING! Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor's
heatsink and CPU cooling FAN is working correctly, otherwise it may
cause the processor and motherboard overheat and damage, you
may install an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Then find Pin-1
(small triangle indicator) of the CPU and make sure to install it matched with Pin-1
(small triangle indicator) of the CPU socket. See to it that system is turned off and the
installation direction is correct. If the installation direction is wrong, CPU can not be
installed into the socket. In this case do not try to force it into the socket, but to change
to the correct direction.
