2-3  Installing the CPU

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the CPU:

•

Make sure that the motherboard supports the CPU.

(Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest CPU support list.)

•

Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the 

CPU to prevent hardware damage.

•

Locate the pin one of the CPU. The CPU cannot be inserted if oriented incorrectly.

•

Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the CPU.

•

Do not turn on the computer if the CPU cooler is not installed, otherwise overheating and damage 

of the CPU may occur.

•

Set the CPU host frequency in accordance with the CPU specifications. It is not recommended 

that the system bus frequency be set beyond hardware specifications since it does not meet the 

standard requirements for the peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard 

specifications, please do so according to your hardware specifications including the CPU, graphics 

card, memory, hard drive, etc.

Installing the CPU

Completely lift up the CPU socket locking lever. Locate the pin one (denoted by a small triangle) of the CPU 

socket and the CPU. Once the CPU is positioned into its socket, place one finger down on the middle of the 

CPU, lowering the locking lever and latching it into the fully locked position.

Do not force the CPU into the CPU socket before the CPU socket locking lever is lifted up, or 

damage to the CPU and CPU socket may occur.
