6.1 Installing a second processor
The system board can be upgraded with a second processor. The upgrade kit
consists of a processor and a heat sink.

Only processors of the same type may be used on the system board.

primary clock and the FSB frequency have to be the same. For dual
operation, use a suitable multiprocessor operating system.
