Installing a microprocessor and heat sink

The following notes describe the types of microprocessor that the server supports and other information that you must consider when you install a microprocessor:

vThe server supports certain Intel® Xeon® scalable multi-core microprocessors, which are designed for the LGA 1366 socket. These microprocessors are 64-bit dual-core or quad-core microprocessors with an integrated memory controller, quick-path interconnect, and shared last cache. See http://www.lenovo.com/ thinkserver for a list of supported microprocessors.

vThe server supports up to two microprocessors. If the server comes with one microprocessor, you can install a second microprocessor.

vBoth microprocessors must have the same QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) link speed, integrated memory controller frequency, core frequency, power segment, cache size, and type.

vRead the documentation that comes with the microprocessor to determine whether you must update the server firmware. To download the most current level of server firmware and many other code updates for your server, complete the following steps:
