Note: The retention module shown above may not represent the one

provided with your motherboard.

Figure 2-12

Figure 2-11

Line up the retention brace with the holes provided on the motherboard. At

the same time, make sure the CPU is lined up with the CPU slot. Lower the

CPU onto the motherboard. The mountings on the retention brace should fit

through the holes of the motherboard and the CPU should fit into the slot.

(See Figure 2-11). Secure the retention brace. The end result should look like

Figure 2-12.

If you have an active cooler, you will also need to connect the CPU’s cooling

fan cable to the cooling fan power connector on the board. Locate the cooling

fan connector (e.g. FAN1) on the motherboard. Plug the CPU’s cooling fan

cable into the cooling fan connector on the board. There will be a plastic clip

assembly similar to that of the ATX power connector that will force you to

connect the fan cable correctly see Figure 2-13 on the following page.
