Step 11
Secure the heat sink to the motherboard by tightening the four captive screws a quarter turn at a time in an X pattern as
shown in the upper right.
Installing a New CPU and Heat Sink
Before installing a new CPU in a server, verify the following:
• The CPU is supported for that given server model. This may be verified via the server's Technical Specifications ordering guides
or by the relevant release of the Cisco UCS Capability Catalog.
• A BIOS update is available and installed that supports the CPU and the given server configuration.
• If the server will be managed by Cisco UCS Manager, the service profile for this server in Cisco UCS Manager will recognize
and allow the new CPU.

the motherboard and the CPU. Do not attempt this procedure without the required tools, which are included
with each CPU option kit. If you do not have the tool, you can order a spare: Cisco PID UCS-CPU-EP-PNP=
for 10-, 8-, 6-, 4-, or 2-core CPUs (green); UCS-CPU-EP2-PNP= for v2 12-core CPUs (purple).
