3.2 Installation You Have to Know
Installing CPU
This socket supports FC-LGA4 CPU, which is the latest CPU package developed by
Intel. Other forms of CPU package are impossible to be fitted in.
1. Pull CPU socket lever and plate up.
2. Remove plastic cap from CPU socket plate.
3. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a golden arrow on the CPU upper
interface. Match Pin 1 and golden arrow. Then insert the CPU into the
socket.
4. Press down the CPU socket plate and lever to finish CPU installation.
socket Pin 1 and CPU golden arrow well,
you may damage the CPU. And please don’t
touch CPU socket pins when installing CPU.

Installing Memory Modules
DIMM slots are designed in Electronic blue which are very easy to recognize.
Insert the module straight down to the DIMM slot with both hands and press down
firmly until the DIMM module is securely in place.
