Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with a surface mount 939-pin Zero Insertion Force
(ZIF) socket designed for the AMD Athlon™ 64FX or AMD Athlon 64™
processor.
The 128-bit-wide data paths of these processors can run applications
faster than processors with only 32-bit or 64-bit wide data paths.
Take note of the marked corner
(with gold triangle) on the CPU. This
mark should match a specific corner
on the socket to ensure correct
installation.
