B. Installing the CPU
Follow the steps below to correctly install the CPU into the motherboard CPU socket.
u
Use a T20 star screwdriver to loosen the three
screws marked as 1, 2, 3 on the CPU metal
load plate. (To open the CPU metal load plate,
loosen the screws in 3>2>1 sequence).
Gently lift the load plate to its fully open position
and pull up the tabs on the two sides of the CPU
rail frame to release the CPU rail frame from the
CPU socket. Then lift the rail frame.
CLOSE 1->2->3
OPEN 3->2->1
v
Use one hand to hold the rail frame and
the other to slide the CPU socket cap out
of the rail frame.
w
Grasp the top portion of the CPU carrier frame
and align its edges with the rails of the CPU rail
frame. Then slide the carrier frame into the rails
until it stops sliding.
Ensure that the edges of the CPU carrier frame
are correctly installed on the rails.
Finally, fasten the screws on the CPU metal
load plate. (To secure the CPU metal load plate,
tighten the screws in a 1-2-3 sequence.)
