When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheating. Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some thermal paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat dispersion.

1.The CPU socket has a plastic cap on it to protect the contact from damage. Before you install the CPU, always cover it to protect the socket pin.

2.Remove the cap from lever hinge side (as the arrow shows).

3. The pins of socket reveal.

4. Open the load lever.

Important

2.Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damaging.

3.The availability of the CPU land side cover depends on your CPU packing.
