Working with microprocessors
Notes:
1. The microprocessor in your server comes with an attached heat
sink. The microprocessor plugs into the microprocessor socket
on the system board and is stabilized with a plastic bracket
attached to the system board.
The type of heat sink in your server might be different from the
heat sink shown in this section.
2. To locate the microprocessor switch area of the system board,
find the rocker switches section of the system-board illustration.
See “System Board Illustration” on page 253. For information
about the appropriate switch settings, see “Setting the
microprocessor speed switches” on page 258, or see the label
inside the server.
To install a microprocessor:
1. Remove the server side cover (see “Disconnecting cables and
removing the side cover” on page 74).
2. Remove the existing microprocessor from its socket.
