Warning: When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct pressure on
the label area.
Notes:
Always connect the power cable last, and always remove it before adding,
removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you in-
stall the processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.
If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certied
multi-directional heatsink only.
Make sure to install the system board into the chassis before you install
the CPU heatsink.
When receiving a server board without a processor pre-installed, make
sure that the plastic CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket
pinsarebent;otherwise,contactyourretailerimmediately.
Refer to the Supermicro website for updates on CPU support.
Please proceed to the following pages for instructions on processor and

The LGA2011 Socket
Currently, there are two kinds of LGA2011 socket mounted on Supermicro mother-
boards, a 'regular' and a 'narrow' sized socket. Though they may look slightly dif-
ferent from one another, however the labeling, operation of the hardware, mounting
of the CPU are similar on both types. The 'narrow' type socket is installed on this
motherboard (X9SRH series)
