processor package should come with installation instructions for the CPU,

fan and heatsink assembly. If the instructions in this section do not match

the CPU documentation, follow the latter.

• Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap is on the

socket and the socket pins are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately

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

pins/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 LGA775 socket.

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

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

removal of the PnP cap.

Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing towards you

and the load lever is on your left.
