The NuPRO-850 CPU module supports single/dual FC-mPGA2 Intel® Pentium® 4 processor with a front side bus (FSB) of 800MHz or 533MHz. Users need to install highly efficient CPU fan/cooler to guarantee the systems stability.

To install the CPU follow the steps below carefully:

2.Insert the CPU in the socket, making sure that pin 1 of the CPU aligns with pin 1 of the socket (both corners are marked with a triangle)

3.Press the lever down until you hear it “click” into the locked position.

4.Apply the proper amount of thermal compound to the CPU die and place the heatsink and fan on top of the CPU.

5.Connect the three wires of the CPU fan to the respective CPU fan connector.

Note: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in tight contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would cause your system to hang or crash. The CPU heat sink and fan should be installed tightly together. Please contact ADLINK dealers for suitable heat sink and fan assemblies
