Installing the Processor
Caution:
When installing a CPU heatsink and cooling fan make sure that you DO NOT
scratch the motherboard or any of the surface-mount resistors with the clip of the
cooling fan.If the clip of the cooling fan scrapes across the motherboard, you may
cause serious damage to the motherboard or its components.
On most motherboards, there are small surface-mount resistors near the processor
socket, which may be damaged if the cooling fan is carelessly installed.
Avoid using cooling fans with sharp edges on the fan casing and the clips. Also,
install the cooling fan in a well-lit work area so that you can clearly see the
motherboard and processor socket.
Before installing the Processor
This motherboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and system bus frequency for the
processor. You may be able to change these settings by making changes to jumpers on the
motherboard, or changing the settings in the system Setup Utility. We strongly recommend that you do
not over-clock processors or other components to run faster than their rated speed.
Warning:
Over-clocking components can adversely affect the reliability of the system and
introduce errors into your system. Over-clocking can permanently damage the
motherboard by generating excess heat in components that are run beyond the
rated limits.
This motherboard has an LGA1156 socket. When choosing a processor, consider the
performance requirements of the system. Performance is based on the processor
design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity
of internal cache memory and external cache memory.
