Hardware Installation
CPU
The system board is equipped with a surface mount LGA 1155 socket. This sock-
et is exclusively designed for installing a LGA 1155 packaged Intel CPU.
Important:
1. Before you proceed, make sure (1) the LGA 1155 socket comes with
a protective cap, (2) the cap is not damaged and (3) the socket’s
contact pins are not bent. If the cap is missing or the cap and/or
contact pins are damaged, contact your dealer immediately.
2. Make sure to keep the protective cap. RMA requests will be accepted
and processed only if the LGA 1155 socket comes with the protective
cap.
