3.1.2 Installing CPU
1. Locate the six screws which secure the Thermal Lump.
2. Use a screwdriver to remove the six screws and keep them safely for later
use.
3. The processor socket comes with a screw to secure the CPU. As shown in
the picture below, loose the screw first before inserting the CPU.
4. Place the CPU into the socket by making sure the notch on the corner of
the CPU corresponding with the notch on the inside of the socket. Once the
CPU is slid into the socket, lock the screw.
5. The contact area and gap between the processor and the heatsink
require a thermal pad or thermal paste. Make sure that heatsink of the
CPU top surface is in complete contact to avoid the CPU overheating
problem. If not, it would cause your system or CPU to be hanged, unstable,
or damaged.
