Overview

The motherboard comes with a surface mount 939-pin Zero Insertion Force
(ZIF) socket designed for the AMD Athlon™ 64FX, AMD Athlon 64™ or AMD
Sempron™ processor.

The 128-bit-wide data paths of these processors can run applications
faster than processors with only 32-bit or 64-bit wide data paths.

Take note of the marked corner (with gold triangle) on the CPU. This mark
should match a specific corner on the socket to ensure correct installation.

Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing
towards you and the load lever is on your left.
