Lifters
Each Xeon processor requires two
lifters in order to allow safe removal
of the processor. The lifters clamp
onto the top holes on the cartridge
corners.
There is a left and a right side for the
lifters. The left side has a single dot
and the right side has two
dots (when holding the
motherboard with the ATX
connectors to the left).
