Back plate Assembly
S8212 follows the AMD 1U/2S CPU keep out zone specification. Please use
the 1U Rev F back plate on the S8212. The distance of two mounting holes
that are used to lock the CPU heat sink down is 3.5” inches. The back plate is
mounted to the backside of the motherboard and reinforces the mount
locations from shock and vibrations. The back plate assembly prevents
excessive motherboard stress in the area near the processor. Without a back
plate, excessive stress could cause serious damage to the CPU circuitry or
integrated circuits surrounding the processor. The back plate also serves as a
reinforcement plate for the LGA socket.
While doing the installation, be careful in holding the components. Follow these
instructions to install your back plate:
1.
Remove the release liner from the back plate.
2.
Align the PEM nuts on the back plate to the holes on the reverse side of
the PCB.
3.
First, insert the taller upper & lower middle PEM nuts through the holes of
the PCB. The remaining four shorter PEM nuts should automatically fit the
4 holes on the PCB as shown in the following pictures.
Let the 2 upper
and lower-middle
PEM nuts pass
through the
holes.
4 PEM nuts
should fit into the
4 holes.
