ATTENTION:
It is strongly recommended that only heatsink that have corresponding
(metal) backplate be used on the CPU card. This is to avoid the CPU
card being bent/distorted, causing the CPU card to become damaged. A
reference picture of a backplate and heatsink that has backplate are
shown below.

Installing the CPU
The IB945 CPU Card supports an LGA 775 processor socket for Intel®
Core 2 Duo processors.
The LGA 775 processor socket comes with a lever to secure the
processor. Refer to the pictures below, from left to right, on how to place
the processor into the CPU socket. Please note that the cover of the
LGA775 socket must always be installed during transport to avoid
damage to the socket.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the power supply is OFF during CPU and
memory module installation.

IB945 User’s Manual 5
Installing the Memory
The IB945 CPU Card supports four DDR3 memory sockets for a
maximum total memory of 8GB. It supports DDRIII 800/1066.
Installing and Removing Memory Modules
To install the DDR3 modules, locate the memory slot on the board and
perform the following steps:
1. Hold the DDR3 module so that the key of the DDR3 module align
with that on the memory slot.
2. Gently push the DDR3 module in an upright position until the clips of
the slot close to hold the DDR3 module in place when the DDR
module touches the bottom of the slot.
