1.5 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed
for the Intel® Core™2 Extreme/Core™2 Duo/Pentium® D/Pentium® 4
and Celeron® D processors.
Note:
Caution!
1. Make sure the AC power is off before you install the CPU.
2. If installing a dual-core CPU, connect the chassis fan
cable to the CHA_FAN connector to ensure system stabil-
ity.
1. Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that
the PnP cap is on the socket and the socket con-
tacts are not bent. Contact your retailer immedi-
ately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any
damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/mother-
board components. We will bear the cost of repair
only if the damage is shipment/transit-related.
2. Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. We
will process Return Merchandise Authorization
(RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes
with the cap on the LGA775 socket.
3. The product warranty does not cover damage to
the socket contacts resulting from incorrect CPU
installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/ incor-
rect removal of the PnP cap.
