motherboard should have a fan attached to it to prevent overheating. If this in
not the case, then purchase a fan before you turn on your system. Be sure
that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor heat sink, or the
processor could overheat and damage both the processor and the
motherboard.
Caution: Please choose the suitable heat sink / cooling fan especially
for AMD CPU operating temperature exceeding 700MHz.
Otherwise, the CPU would be totally damaged, resulted from
overheat up to more than 100 degrees in Clesius.
CPU Installation Procedures

the surface.
2.Pull up the ZIF socket CAM to a 90-
