2-2 Processor and Heatsink Installation
Warning: When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan.
Notes:
Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before add-
ing, removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that
you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU
heatsink.
If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use an Intel-certified
multi-directional heatsink only.
Make sure to install the serverboard into the chassis before you install
the CPU heatsinks.
When receiving a serverboard without a processor pre-installed, make sure
that the plastic CPU socket cap is in place and none of the socket pins
are bent; otherwise, contact your retailer immediately.
Refer to the Supermicro web site for updates on CPU support.

Press the load lever to release the load plate, which covers the CPU socket,
