2.1.1 CPU installation
• The AMD AM4 socket is compatible with AMD AM4 processors. Ensure you use a
CPU designed for the AM4 socket. The CPU fits in only one correct orientation. DO
NOT force the CPU into the socket to prevent bending the connectors on the socket
and damaging the CPU!
• ASUS will not cover damages resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal,
incorrect CPU orientation/placement, or other damages resulting from negligence by
the user.
