side braces.
Make sure the tab of the overhead clip is oriented towards the
same side of the CPU fan
(see Figure I below).
Removing CPU -
Removal of the CPU is basically the reverse order of the
installation steps.
First remove the overhead clip. You need to push BOTH
side lock tabs (see Figure I above) towards the center of the
CPU in order to unlock it from the side braces. After
removing the overhead clip, you need to release the CPU
from the braces one side at a time. Press the center release
tab of one of the side braces (see Figure J right) while
gently pulling that side of the CPU out of its slot. Repeat
the procedure for the other side brace. When both ends of
the CPU is loose from the side braces and the slot, you will
be able to remove it from the motherboard.
