Configuració i instal·lació
The Intel Core i7-7700K processor is compatible only with motherboards based on Intel 100 or 200 Series Chipsets and requires an LGA1151 socket. Ensure your motherboard's BIOS is updated to support Kaby Lake processors if necessary.
Passos d'instal·lació:
- Prepara la placa base: Open the CPU socket retention lever and load plate on your LGA1151 motherboard.
- Instal·lar el processador: Carefully align the processor with the socket, ensuring the gold triangle on the processor matches the triangle on the socket. Gently place the processor into the socket without forcing it.
- Processador segur: Tanqueu la placa de càrrega i fixeu-la amb la palanca de retenció.
- Aplicar pasta tèrmica: Apply a thin, even layer of high-quality thermal paste to the center of the processor's integrated heat spreader (IHS).
- Instal·leu el refrigerador de CPU: Mount your chosen CPU cooler according to its manufacturer's instructions. Ensure proper contact and pressure for optimal heat dissipation.
- Connecteu el ventilador del refrigerador: Connecteu el cable del ventilador del refrigerador de la CPU a la capçalera CPU_FAN designada de la placa base.
For detailed visual instructions, refer to the official Manual d'instal·lació (PDF) provided by Intel.
