3.2 Installation You Have to Know

Installing CPU

This socket supports FC-LGA4 CPU, which is the latest CPU package developed by

Intel. Other forms of CPU package are impossible to be fitted in.

1. Pull CPU socket lever and plate up.

2. Remove plastic cap from CPU socket plate.

3. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a golden arrow on the CPU upper

interface. Match Pin 1 and golden arrow. Then insert the CPU into the

socket.

4. Press down the CPU socket plate and lever to finish CPU installation.

Note: It’s strongly recommended by

Intel to use thermal paste properly to avoid

over-heat generated from Prescott CPU.
