    Chapter 2: Installation 2.2 Motherboard Installation All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fit different types of chassis. Make sure that the locations 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 20: Installing The Motherboard

    Chapter 2: Installation Installing the Motherboard 1. Locate the mounting holes on the motherboard. See the previous page for the location. 2. Locate the matching mounting holes on the chassis. Align the mounting holes on the motherboard against the mounting holes on the chassis. 3.

  • Page 21: Processor And Heatsink Installation

    CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket pins are bent; otherwise, contact your retailer immediately. • Refer to the Supermicro website for updates on CPU support. Installing the Processor and Heatsink 1. Unscrew the screw #1 holding down the force frame.
  • Page 22 Chapter 2: Installation 2. The spring-loaded force frame will raise up after the screw securing it (#1) is removed. Gently allow it to lift up to its stopping position. Force Frame 3. Lift the rail frame up by gripping the lift tabs near the front end of the rail frame. While keeping a secure grip of the rail frame, lift it to a position so you can do the next step of removing the external cap.
  • Page 23 Chapter 2: Installation 4. Remove the external cap from the rail frame by pulling it upwards through the rail guides on the rail frame. External Cap 5. The CPU package is shipped from the factory with the carrier frame pre-assembled. Grip the handle of the carrier frame/CPU package assembly from its shipping tray, and while gripping the handle, align the flanges of the carrier frame onto the rails of the rail frame so its pins will be at the bottom when the rail frame is lowered later.
  • Page 24 Chapter 2: Installation Note: You can only install the CPU inside the socket in one direction with the handle at the top. Make sure that it is properly inserted into the CPU socket before closing the rail frame plate. If it doesn't close properly, do not force it as it may damage your CPU. Instead, open the rail frame plate again, and double-check that the CPU is aligned properly.
  • Page 25 Chapter 2: Installation 8. Gently lower the rail frame down onto the socket until the latches on the rail frame engage with the socket housing and it rests in place. DO NOT force it into place! 9. Note that the force frame is spring loaded and has to be held in place before it is secured.
  • Page 26 Chapter 2: Installation 10. Replace and tighten the screws in the same order they were removed. When finished, the force frame will be secure over both the rail frame and CPU package. 11. After the force frame is secured and the CPU package is in place, now you must install the heatsink to the frame.
  • Page 27 Chapter 2: Installation 12. Using a diagonal pattern, tighten the six screws down on the heatsink in a clockwise fashion until secure. The heatsink will now be secured and you have finished installing the processor and heatsink onto the motherboard. Repeat this procedure for any remaining CPU sockets on the motherboard.
  • Page 28 Chapter 2: Installation Un-installing the Processor and Heatsink 1. Remove the heatsink attached to the top of the CPU package by reversing the installation procedure. 2. Clean the thermal grease left by the heatsink on the CPU package lid to limit the risk of it contaminating the CPU package land pads or contacts in the socket housing.
