To install the CPU, unlock first the socket by pressing the lever sideways,
then lift it up to a 90-degree. Then, position the CPU above the socket

socket corner with a small triangle. Carefully insert the CPU into the
socket and push down the lever to secure the CPU. Then, install the heat
sink and fan.
NOTE: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in
total contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would
cause your system to hang or be unstable.
