the processor carrier assembly. This will be attached to the heatsink to form the processor
heatsink module (PHM) before being installed onto the CPU socket.
Notes:
• Use ESD protection.
• Unplug the AC power cord from all power supplies after shutting down the system.
• Check that the plastic protective cover is on the CPU socket and none of the socket pins
are bent. If they are, contact your retailer.
• When handling the processor, avoid touching or placing direct pressure on the LGA lands
(gold contacts). Improper installation or socket misalignment can cause serious damage
to the processor or CPU socket, which may require manufacturer repairs.
• Thermal grease is pre-applied on a new heatsink. No additional thermal grease is needed.
• Refer to the Supermicro website for updates on processor support.
