2 Hardware Setup

This chapter provides you with the information about hardware setup procedures. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the com ponents and follow the installation procedures. For some components, if you install in the wrong orientation, the components will not work properly. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. Static electricity may damage the components.

CPU (Central Processing Unit)

When installing the CPU, make sure that you install the cooler to prevent overheating. If you do not have the CPU cooler, consult your dealer before turning on the computer.

Important

Overheating

Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.

Replacing the CPU

While replacing the CPU, always turn off the power supply or unplug the power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet first to ensure the safety of CPU.

Introduction to LGA 115x CPU

CPU Installation

When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheating. Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some thermal paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat dispersion.

Open the load lever and remove the

1. Lift the load lever up to fully open plastic cap.

Important

Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well into the socket. If not, take out the CPU with pure vertical motion and reinstall.

Secure the load lever with the hook

8. to the CPU fan connector on the motherboard.

Important

Confirm if your CPU cooler is firmly installed before turning on your system.

•

Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damage.

•

Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pins with the plastic

•

cap covered. Please refer to the documentation in the CPU cooler package for more details about

•

the CPU cooler installation. Read the CPU status in BIOS.
