    2.4 Installing the Processor and Heat sink ® The S8010 supported AMD processors are listed in section Hardware Specifications on page 4. Check our website at http://www.tyan.com for latest processor support. NOTE: MiTAC is not liable for damage as a result of operating an unsupported configuration.
  • Page 27 Pull the CPU lever slightly away from the socket and then push it to a fully open position. Lift the socket cover to a fully open position. Place the CPU in the CPU socket and make sure that the gold arrow is located in the right direction with two notches properly aligned. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 28 . Please refer to the AMD website: http://www.amd.com The following diagram illustrates how to install the heat sink onto the CPU of S8010. Place the heat sink on top of the CPU and secure it to the motherboard with 2 screws. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 29: Thermal Interface Material

    CPU lid (applying too much will actually reduce the cooling). NOTE: Always check with the manufacturer of the heat sink & processor to ensure that the thermal interface material is compatible with the processor and meets the manufacturer’s warranty requirements. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 30: Tips On Installing Motherboard In Chassis

    Some chassis include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are usable, MiTAC recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard more securely in place. Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how they should be installed. http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 31: Installing The Memory

    2.7 Installing the Memory Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the motherboard and processor. Check the TYAN Web site at http://www.tyan.com for details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard. The following diagram shows common types of DDR3 memory modules.
  • Page 32 http://www.tyan.com...
  • Page 33: Memory Installation Procedure

    Align the memory module with the socket. The memory module is keyed to fit only one way in the socket. KEY SLOT Seat the module firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until it sits flush with the socket. The locking levers pop up into place. http://www.tyan.com...
