Chapter 2: Board Installation

You are now ready to install your motherboard.

How to install our products right… the first time

The first thing you should do is reading this user’s manual. It contains important

information that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some

precautions you should take when installing your motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the

antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and

then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power

supply case). For the safest conditions, TYAN recommends wearing a

static safety wrist strap.

(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the

board, or flex the board in any way.

(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,

memory modules, and leads.

(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the

antistatic bag that the board was shipped in.

(5) Inspect the board for damage.

The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your

chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.

NOTE

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN

DAMAGED.

2.4 - Installing the Processor

Your brand new Thunder n3600QX (S4987) supports the latest 64-bit processor

technology from AMD

®

. Only AMD

®

Opteron™ Socket F 8000 series

processors are certified and supported with this motherboard.

Check our website for latest processor support. http://www.tyan.com

TYAN is not liable for damage as a result of operating an unsupported

configuration.

The diagram is provided as a visual guide to help you install the socket

processor and may not be an exact representation of the processor you have.

Step 1: Take off the CPU protection cap.

Step 2: Pull the CPU lever up to unlock the CPU socket (A). Then open the

socket in the direction as shown (B).

Step 3: Place the CPU on the CPU socket, ensuring that pin 1 is located in the

right direction.

Step 4: Close the CPU socket cover (A) and press the CPU socket lever down

to secure the CPU (B).

Take care when installing the processor as it has very fragile

connector pins below the processor and can bend and break

if inserted improperly.

18

Place the heat sink on top of the CPU

and secure it to the motherboard using

two screws clockwise.

19

2.5 - Heat sink Installation

After installing the processor, you should proceed to install the heat sink. The

CPU heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to

operate at maximum performance for as long as you own them. The overheated

processor is dangerous to the motherboard.

For the safest method of installation and information on choosing the

appropriate heat sink, use heat sinks validated by AMD. Please refer to AMD’s

website at www.amd.com.

The following diagram illustrates how to install heat sink onto the CPU of S4987.

2.6 - Thermal Interface Material

There are two types of

thermal interface materials

designed for use with the

AMD

®

Opteron

™

processors.

The most common material

comes as a small pad

attached to the heat sink at

the time of purchase. There

should be a protective cover

over the material. Take care

not to touch this material.

Simply remove the protective

cover and place the heat

sink on the processor.

The second type of interface

material is usually packaged

separately. It is commonly

referred to as ‘thermal

compound’. Simply apply a

thin layer on to the CPU lid

(applying too much will

actually reduce the cooling).

NOTE

Always check with the manufacturer of the heat sink &

processor to ensure the Thermal Interface material is

compatible with the processor & meets the manufacturer’s

warranty requirements
