3. Insert the SEC Cartridge: Push the SEC cartridge’s two locks inward until
you hear a click (the preceding picture shows the locks in the outward position
and inward in the picture below). With the heatsink facing the motherboard’s
chipset, press the cartridge gently but firmly until it is fully inserted. (NOTE:
The procedures shown here are for installing the AAVID heatsink with fan.)
IMPORTANT: If you are installing only one processor, you must terminate the empty
slot with the ASUS C-P2T PC100 CPU termination card to maintain signal strength.

or later) to terminate the empty slot.

5. Connect the Thermal Sensor Cables to J1601/J1602: If you purchased the
specially designed ASUS Smart Fans (ASUS S-P2FAN), which come with a
thermal sensor built inside the CPU fan, or purchased separately the thermal
sensor cables (ASUS P2T-Cable), you can connect the P2T-Cables to your
motherboard’s thermal sensor connectors. See the next page for information on
ASUS Smart Thermal Solutions.
4. Secure the SEC Cartridge: Secure the SEC cartridge in place by pushing the
SEC cartridge locks outward so that the lock protrudes through the retention
mechanism’s lock holes.
