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.

Introduction to LGA1356 CPU

Remember to apply some thermal paste on the CPU for better heat dis­persion.

Alignment Key

Yellow triangle is the Pin 1 indicator

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 rst to ensure the safety of CPU.
