CPU Installation
The motherboard provides a ZIF socket 370. The CPU that came
with the motherboard should have a fan attached to it to prevent
overheating . If this is not the case then purchase a fan before you
turn on your system.
To install a CPU , first turn off your system and remove its cover.
Locate the ZIF socket and open it by first pulling the lever sideways
away from the socket then upwards to a 90-degree right angle. In-
sert the CPU with the correct orientation shown . The notched cor-
ner 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.
