*Notes:
1. Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before adding, removing
or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install the processor
into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.
2. Intel's boxed Xeon CPU package contains the CPU fan and heatsink assembly.
If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use only Intel-certifi ed multi-di-
rectional heatsink and fan.
3. Make sure to install the motherboard into the chassis before you install the CPU
heatsink and fan.
4. When purchasing a motherboard with an LGA 771 CPU Socket, make sure that
the CPU plastic cap is in place and none of the CPU Socket pins are bent; other-
wise, contact the retailer immediately.
