Chapter 2: Installation 2-1 Chapter 2 Installation 2-1 Static-Sensitive Devices Electrostatic-Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. T o prevent dam - age to your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully . The following measures are generally sufcient to protect your equipment from ESD.
2-2 X8SIA/X8SIA-F User's Manual 2-2 Processor and Heatsink Installation W arning : When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct pressure on the label area of the fan. Notes: Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before add - ing, removing or changing any hardware components.
Chapter 2: Installation 2-3 Align the CPU key that is the semi-circle cutouts against the socket keys. Once the CPU key is aligned, carefully lower the CPU straight down to the socket. (Do not drop the CPU on the socket. Do not move the CPU horizon - tally or vertically .
2-4 X8SIA/X8SIA-F User's Manual W arning: The CPU will only seat inside the socket in one direction. Make sure it is properly inserted before closing the load plate. If it doesn't close properly , do not force it as it may damage your CPU. Instead, open the load plate again and double-check if the CPU is aligned properly .
Chapter 2: Installation 2-5 Do not apply any thermal grease to the heatsink or the CPU die -- the required amount has already been applied. Installing a Passive CPU Heatsink Screw#1 Screw#2 Motherboard Mounting Holes Finish the installation by fully tightening all four screws.
2-6 X8SIA/X8SIA-F User's Manual W arning: W e do not recomme nd that the CPU or the h eatsink be removed. However , if you do need to uninstall the heatsink, please follow the instruc - tions below to uninstall the heatsink to prevent damage done to the CPU or the CPU socket.
Chapter 2: Installation 2-7 Thermal Grease Heatsink Fins Locate the CPU Fan power connector on the motherboard. (Refer to the layout on the right for the CPU Fan location.) Position the heatsink so that the heatsink fan wires are closest to the CPU fan power connector and are not interfered with other components.
2-8 X8SIA/X8SIA-F User's Manual Align the four heatsink fasteners with the mounting holes on the moth - erboard. Gently push the pairs of diagonal fasteners (#1 & #2, and #3 & #4) into the mounting holes until you hear a click. (Note: Make sure to orient each fastener so that the narrow end of the groove is pointing outward.
Chapter 2: Installation 2-9 Unplug the power cord from the power supply . Disconnect the heatsink fan wires from the CPU fan header . Use your nger tips to gently press on the fastener cap and turn it counter - clockwise to make a 1/4 (90 0 ) turn, and then pull the fastener upward to loosen it.
