The CPU fits only in one correct orientation. DO NOT force the
CPU into the socket to avoid bending of the pins.
Step 4.
When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push
down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab
to indicate that it is locked.

2.4 Installation of CPU Fan and Heatsink
Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 CPU requires larger heatsink and cooling fan. Thermal grease
between the CPU and the heatsink is also needed to improve heat dissipation.
Make sure that the CPU and the heatsink are securely fastened and in good
contact with each other. For proper installation, please kindly refer to the
instruction manuals of the CPU fan and heatsink vendors.
2.5 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)
SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) has 168
pins and DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM DIMM has 184 pins. There are two
SDRAM DIMM slots (black) and two DDR DIMM slots (blue) provided on P4i45G,
P4i45GL, and P4i45GV motherboards. On P4i45GE motherboard, only 2 DDR
DIMM slots and
NO SDRAM DIMM SLOTS
are provided.
Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding
or removing DIMMs or the system components.
The 168-pin SDRAM DIMM slot (black) and 184-pin DDR DIMM slot (blue) can
be easily distinguished by the fool-proof design.
Please do not use both 168-pin SDRAM DIMM and 184-pin
DDR DIMM at the same time. To optimize the compatibility, it
is not recommended to use two different models of the DIMMs
at the same time.
