CPU Socket 478 Configuration Steps:

1. Locate the CPU socket on your mainboard and nudge the lever away from the socket.

Then lift the lever to a 90-degree angle.

2.On the socket, locate the corner that has the pin-1 receptor. This corner will have a

cut-corner, on the rectangular shaped pattern of pin holes on the socket.

Match the dot on the CPU with the pin-1 receptor on the socket and lower the CPU onto

the socket. The bottom of the CPU should be flush with the face of the socket.










3. Lower the lever until it snaps back into position. This will lock down the CPU.








4. Smear thermal grease on top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan onto the CPU and use the

clasps on the fan to attach it to the socket. Finally, extend the power cable from the fan
and insert it onto the CPUFAN adapter.




Attention

Overheating may damage the CPU and other sensitive components. Please check
the installation completely before starting the system. Make sure the heatsink and
the CPU fan are properly installed.
