2.4 - Installing the Processor(s)

Your brand new Tiger K8WE supports the latest 64-bit processor technology from AMD. Only AMD Opteron™ processor 200 series are certified and supported with this motherboard.

NOTE

If using a single processor, it MUST be installed in socket CPU1. When using a single processor only CPU1 memory banks are addressable.

TYAN is not liable for damage as a result of operating an unsupported configuration.

The diagram is provided as a visual guide to help you install socket processors and may not be an exact representation of the processors you have.

Step 1: Lift the lever on the socket until it is approximately 90o or as far back as possible to the socket.

Step 2: Align the processor with the socket. There are keyed pins underneath the processor to ensure that the processor’s installed correctly.

Step 3: Seat the processor firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until the processor sits flush with the socket.

Step 4: Place the socket lever back down until it locks into place. The installation is finished.

Repeat these steps for the second processor if you are using two processors.

Take care when installing processors as they have very fragile connector pins below the processor and can bend and break if inserted improperly.
