Chapter 2: Installation
Creating the 3rd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processor
Carrier Assembly
To install the processor into the processor carrier, follow the steps below:
1. Hold the processor with the LGA lands (gold contacts) facing up. Locate the small, gold
triangle in the corner of the processor and the corresponding hollowed triangle on the
processor carrier. These triangles indicate pin 1. The triangles can be found on the top
and bottom of the processor. See the images below.
2. Using the triangles as a guide, carefully align and place Point A of the processor into the
carrier. Then gently snap in the other side of the carrier for the processor to fasten into
Point B.
Note: The 3rd Generatoin Intel Xeon Scalable Processor carrier contains four metal
rings on each corner.
3. Examine all corners to ensure that the processor is rmly attached to the carrier.
