2-1 Install the CPU and CPU Cooler

           

Install the CPU

Locate the alignment keys on the motherboard CPU socket and the notches on the CPU.

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the CPU :

■  Make sure that the motherboard supports the CPU.
■  Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power supply  

 

before installing the CPU to prevent hardware damage.

■  Locate the pin one of the CPU. The CPU cannot be inserted if oriented 

 

 

incorrectly. (Or you may locate the notches on both sides of the CPU and  

 

alignment keys on the CPU socket.)

■  Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the CPU.
■  Do not turn on the computer if the CPU cooler is not installed, otherwise 

 

 

overheating and damage of the CPU may occur.

■   Set the CPU host frequency in accordance with the CPU specifications. It is not  

 

recommended that the system bus frequency be set beyond hardware  

  specifications since it does not meet the standard requirements for the 

 

  peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard specifications,  
  please do so according to your hardware specifications including the CPU,  

 

graphics card, memory, hard drive, etc.

Hyper-Threading Technology System Requirements:
(Go to Intel's website for more information about the Hyper-Threading Technology)

■  An Intel® CPU that supports HT Technology
■  A chipset that supports HT Technology
■  An operating system that is optimized for HT Technology
■  A BIOS that supports HT Technology and has it enabled
