2.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for
the Intel
®
Pentium
®
4 processor in the 775-land package.
• Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the LGA775
socket has its PnP cap on and the socket contacts are not bent. If
the cap is damaged or missing, or if the socket contacts are bent,
contact your retailer immediately.
• Keep the PnP cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process
Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the
motherboard comes with the PnP cap on the LGA775 socket.
Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing
towards you and the load lever is on your left.
