IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cords last and always remove
them before adding, removing or changing any hardware components.
Make sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you
install the heatsink.

5-2 PGA Processor and Heatsink Installation
When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the
serverboard on a conductive surface, which can damage the
BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up.
Processor Support:
Single or Dual: Intel Xeon processors MP to 2.8 GHz. Install processors
into the CPU1 (single) socket or CPU1 and and CPU4 sockets (dual).
Quad: Intel Xeon processors MP to 2.8 GHz.

P/N Clip Model CPU Type/Speed
SKT095 603 (one pair for each CPU) Gallatin: 1.9 - 2.8GHz
SKT095E 603E (one pair for each CPU) Foster: 1.4 - 1.6GHz
Due to differences between the Foster and Gallatin CPU pack-
ages, Supermicro provides two different types of CPU heatsink
retention clips with our quad Xeon serverboards. The Foster
package is about 1.5 mm shorter than the Gallatin package.
The following table shows the heatsink clip usage for each
CPU type.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to use the correct type of Xeon retention clips for your
processor(s).
