2.3.1 Installing the CPU
To install a CPU:
1.
Locate the CPU socket on the motherboard.
2.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA 2011 R3 socket designed for the Intel
®
Xeon E5-2600 v3 processor family.
• Upon purchase of the motherboard, ensure that the PnP cap is on the socket and
the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately if the PnP cap
is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard
components. ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/
transit-related.
• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return Merchandise
Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA
2011 R3 socket.
• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts resulting from
incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of the PnP
cap.
Before installing the CPU, ensure that the socket box is facing toward you and the triangle
mark is on the top-right position.
