Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA1156 socket designed for the

Intel

®

Core™ i5/i7 Processor.

• Ensure that all power cables are unplugged before installing the CPU.
• Connect the chassis fan cable to the CHA_FAN1 connector to ensure

system stability.

• Upon purchase of the motherboard, ensure that the PnP cap is on the socket

and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately if

the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the PnP cap/socket

contacts/motherboard components. ASUS will shoulder the cost of repair only

if the damage is shipment/transit-related.

• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ASUS will process Return

Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the motherboard comes

with the cap on the LGA1156 socket.

• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts resulting

from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect

removal of the PnP cap.
