If the clip of the cooling fan scrapes across the mainboard, you may cause serious damage to both the mainboard and the processor. On most mainboards, there are small surface-mount resistors near the processor socket, which may be damaged if the cooling fan is carelessly installed. Avoid using cooling fans with sharp edges on the fan casing and the clips. Also, install the cooling fan in a well-lit work area so that you can clearly see the mainboard and processor socket. Before installing the Processor This mainboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and system bus frequency for processor. You may be able to change these automatic settings by making changes to jumpers on the mainboard, or changing the settings in the system Setup Utility. We strongly recommend that you do not overclock the mainboard to run processors or other components faster than their rated speed. Warning: Overclocking components can adversely affect the reliability of the system and introduce errors into your system. Overclocking can permanently damage the mainboard by generating excess heat in components that are run beyond the rated limits. This mainboard has a Socket 370 processor socket. When choosing a processor, consider the performance requirements of the system. Performance is based on the processor design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity of internal cache memory and external cache memory. 19 CPU Installation Procedure The following illustration shows CPU installation components: Socket 370 CPU fan Locking lever Pin-1 corner 20 Follow these instructions to install the CPU: 1.
