CPU Socket 478 Configuration Steps:
1. Locate the CPU socket on your mainboard and nudge the lever away from the socket. Then lift the
lever to a 90-degree angle.
2. On the socket, locate the corner that has the pin-1 receptor. This corner will be near to the end of
the lever. Match the dot on the CPU with the pin-1 receptor on the socket and lower the CPU onto the
socket. The bottom of the CPU should be flush with the face of the socket.
3. Lower the lever until it snaps back into position. This will lock down the CPU.
4. Smear thermal grease on top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan onto the CPU and use the clasps on the
fan to attach it to the socket. Finally, extend the power cable from the fan and insert it onto the
CPUFAN adapter.
Attention: Before starting the system
Please check the installation completely before starting the system. Verify that the
heatsink is properly installed and make sure the CPU fan is working. Overheating can
damage the CPU and other sensitiver components.
