3.6 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard has a PGA 370 socket.
WARNING! Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor
heatsink by regularly checking that your CPU fan is working. Without sufficient
circulation, the processor could overheat and damage both the processor and the
motherboard. The CPU will be unstable if the heatsink is not properly
mounted. Double check the contact.
To install a CPU, first turn off the system and remove its cover. Locate the CPU
socket and open it by first lifting the lever to a 90-degree angle. Carefully insert the
CPU with the correct orientation as shown. The notched corner should point towards
the end of the lever. Because the CPU has a corner pin for two of the four corners,
the CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown. The picture is for reference only.
Once completely inserted, pull down the socket lever while holding down the
CPU. Next, install the specified heatsink.
NOTE: The motherboard automatically sets the correct Bus Frequency and Multiple
for the processor. PGA370 processors provide internal thermal sensing that a socket
mounted thermal resistor is not needed.
CAUTION! Be careful not to scrape the motherboard when mounting a clamp-
style processor heatsink or else damage may occur to the motherboard.
