CPU and the Heat Sink Installation
The FW-8771 sever system is powered by the MB-8771
sever board, which comes with one ZIF type LGA1150 CPU
socket.
Follow the procedures bellow for installing a CPU
1. Press the load lever and release it from the retention
tab.
2. Lift the load lever and then the plate.
3. Remove the CPU socket cap.
4. Align the CPU key and the notch on the socket. The
CPU should fit perfectly into the socket. Note that the
CPU fits in the socket in only one direction.
5. Close the plate and push the load lever to lock it back
to the retention tab.
6. Peel off the sticker on the CPU to expose the thermal
compound.
7. Put the heat sink on top of the installed CPU, and match
the screws with the screw holes on the board. Fasten
two screws which are opposite to each other at a time
and then the other two. It is easier this way because of
the force of the spring.
8. Place the heat sink cover on top of the installed heat
sink and screw the three screws to fasten it on the
case.
