Chapter 2. Hardware Setup
2.1. CPU Socket
This motherboard provides a ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) Socket 940 to install AMD
Socket 940 CPU. The CPU you bought should contain with a kit of heatsink, cooling
fan, retention frame and back plate. If that’s not the case, buy one specially designed
for Socket 940.
NOTE: This server board supports installing either one or two CPUs. To set up
system with only one CPU, you MUST install it in Socket CPU1.

2.2. System Memory
• 64-bit Mode: Start populating DIMMs only at slot DIMM2, DIMM4,
DIMM6, and/or DIMM8.
• 128-bit Mode: Start populating in pairs and in order from DIMM1+DIMM2.
• At least one DIMM slot must be populated for the system to POST.
• For best performance, populate DIMMs symmetrically.
• To access DIMMs on CPU2, both processors must be installed.
