2.2.3Support kit for motherboard

For additional protection from motherboard breakage due to the weight of the CPU heatsinks, your motherboard package comes with two CEK springs. Install the CEK spring before installing the motherboard to the chassis.

If your chassis is SSI EEB 3.5 compliant, we recommend that you use the CEK springs.
