Installation Guide
Installation
Installing the PL-P3/SMP™ is quick and easy: First, remove the original processors from the motherboard’s
processor slots. Next, insert a processor into the PL-P3/SMP™, apply thermal compound to the processor, and
install the heatsink/fan. Finally, install the PL-P3/SMP™ into the motherboard’s processor slot and make power
connections.
