CPU Card

Your system comes with the CPU installed on a board that connects to the system
board. To upgrade to another CPU type, you need to replace the CPU card.
Warning: CPU and memory modules have hot components.
Wait 2 minutes after power is off before handling these modules.
Take appropriate antistatic precautions when handling internal
parts.
