Lift the lever on the CPU socket: lift the lever completely or you will damage the CPU socket when power is applied. (Install CPU1 first.) 6. Install the CPU in the socket. Make sure that pin 1 of the CPU is seated on pin 1 of the socket (both corners are marked).
Page 24 Notched Corner Mounting the Motherboard in the Chassis All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit different types of chassis. Make sure the location of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard and the chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting fasteners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the motherboard to the chassis.
Page 25: Installing Dimms
Installing DIMMs Note: Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules: http://www.supermicro.com/TECHSUPPORT/FAQs/Memory_vendors.htm Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent any possible damage.
