Processor Socket

1. For Pin Grid Array (PGA) sockets, look at the bottom of the processor to locate
which corner of the processor does not have a PIN in it.
2. Figure 17
3. In order to insert the processor into the socket, line up the corner that does not
have a pin and insert the processor into the socket.
Note: Do NOT force the pins of the processor into the socket, as it may cause damage to the
processor. Insertion of the processor should be smooth and gentle, when aligned
correctly.
4. Hold down the processor with your finger and use a small flat head screw driver to
turn the locking screw clockwise 180 degrees, to the locked position. Next to the
sides of the screw on the socket, there are diagrams of a closed lock and an open
lock indicating if the socket is locked or unlocked.

Connecting Heatsinks and Fans

1. The active heatsink for Intel
CRB. If this is not the case, plug the fan connector into the "FAN1" connector
located in the coordinate F7.
2. Connect the active CoolerMaster* heatsink to the processor and then plug the fan
into "CPUFan".
