to let it sit on top of the CPU.
Do not force to close the load plate as
it may damage the CPU.
10. Push down the left load lever (H)
ensuring that the edge of the load plate
is fixed and tucked securely under the
lever (I) then insert the left load lever
under the retention tab (J).
The PnP cap pops out of the load plate when the left load lever is inserted into the retention
tab.
Keep the PnP cap. ASUS will process Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests
only if the motherboard comes with the PnP cap on the LGA 2011-3 socket.
