Please install the processor into the CPU socket step by step as below: Step1 Opening the socket: Disengage load lever by releasing down and out on the hook. This will clear retention tab. Rotate load lever to open position at approximately 135°. Rotate load plate to open position at approximately 150°. Note: Apply pressure to corner with right-hand thumb when opening or closing load lever otherwise lever will bounce back (as a mouse trap) causing bent contacts. Step2 Removing the socket protective cover: Place thumb against the front edge of the protective cover and rest index finger on the rear grip to maintain control of the cover. Lift the front edge of the protective cover to disengage from the socket. Keep control of the cover by holding the rear grip with index finger. Lift protective cover away from the socket, being careful not to touch the electrical contacts. Hardware Installation 25 IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard Note: Vertical removal is NOT recommended, as it requires higher force and can lead to socket contact damage. Caution: Never touch fragile socket contacts to avoid damage and do not touch processor sensitive contacts at any time during installation. Step3 Processor installation: Lift processor package from shipping media by grasping the substrate edges. Scan the processor package gold pads for any presence of foreign material. If necessary, the gold pads can be wiped clean with a soft lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol. Locate connection 1 indicator on the processor which aligns with connection 1 indicator chamfer on the socket, and notice processor keying features that line up with posts along socket walls. 26 Hardware Installation IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard Grasp the processor with thumb and index finger along the top and bottom edges. (Do not touch the orientation notches.) The socket will have cutouts for your fingers to fit into (see image below). Carefully place the processor into the socket body vertically (see image below). Note: Tilting or roughly shifting it into place can damage socket contacts. Caution: Do not use a vacuum pen for installation. Hardware Installation 27 IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard Verify that package is within the socket body and properly connected to orientation keys. Close the socket (see image below): 1. Gently lower the load plate. 2. Make sure load plate's front edge slides under the shoulder screw cap as the lever is lowered. 3. Latch the lever under the top plate's corner tab, being cautious not to damage the motherboard with the tip of the lever. Step4 Fan heatsink handling: 1. 28 Orientate the CPU cooling fan to fixing holes on the board. Hardware Installation IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard 2. Screw the CPU cooling fan onto the board. 3. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to the CPU fan connector. Step5 Removing the processor: Open the socket: 1. 2. Disengage the load lever. Open the load plate Remove the Processor package, holding along the top and bottom edges, or by using a vacuum pen. Maintain Processor horizontal and remove Processor with a vertical motion to avoid damaging the socket contacts. Place the processor in a specially designed tray or ESD retainer for storage. Do not place directly on table resting on gold lands Assemble LGA1150 socket protective cover: Hardware Installation 29 IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard 1. 2. 3. 4. Hold protective cover at 45 degree angle to the LGA1150 Socket. Carefully lower protective cover on hinge side first, to contact with the outside wall of the LGA1150 Socket: Engage protective cover retention features to outside of LGA1150 Socket, and align 2 cover corners to socket corners (This step is critical to avoid Bent Contact Damage!). Lower protective cover to attach to the LGA1150 Socket on Shoulder screw side. Perform Visual and Tactile verification that protective cover is properly seated in the LGA1150 Socket: Hold cover and move gently “side by side” to feel the play within the cover and the LGA1150 Socket. 30 Close the socket load plate and engage the load lever (see image below). Hardware Installation IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard 3.2 Installing the Memory The board supports four 240-pin DDR3 DIMM memory sockets with maximum memory capacity up to 32GB. Note: A DDR3 module has the same physical dimensions as a DDR2 DIMM but is notched differently to prevent installation on a DDR2 DIMM socket. Please follow steps below to install the memory modules: Push down latches on each side of the DIMM socket. Align the memory module with the socket that notches of memory module must match the socket keys for a correct installation. Install the memory module into the socket and push it firmly down until it is fully seated. The socket latches are levered upwards and clipped on to the edges of the DIMM. Install any remaining DIMM modules. 3.2.1 Dual Channel Memory Configuration This motherboard provides four DDR3 memory sockets and support Dual Channel Technology. After the memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specifications and capacity of the memory enabling Dual Channel memory sockets are divided into two channels and each channel has two memory sockets as follows: Channel 0: DIMM1, DIMM2 Channel 1: DIMM3, DIMM4 Hardware Installation 31 IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard DIMM1 DIMM2 DIMM3 DIMM4 Due to CPU limitations, read the following guidelines before installing the memory in Dual Channel mode. 1. Dual Channel mode cannot be enabled if only one DDR3 memory module is installed. 2. When enabling Dual Channel mode with two or four memory modules, it is recommended that memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips are used for optimum performance. When enabling Dual Channel mode with two memory modules, be sure to install them in DIMM2 and DIMM4 sockets. 32 Hardware Installation IMB210 LGA1150 ATX Motherboard Chapter 4 Hardware Description 4.1 Microprocessors ® ® TM ® ® The IMB210 Series supports Intel Xeon E3/ Core i7/ i5/ i3/ Pentium / Celeron processors, ® ® which enable your system to operate under Windows 7, Windows 8 and Linux environments.
