Follow these steps to install your Intel Core i7-12700F processor and its included cooler:

3.1. פּראַסעסאָר אינסטאַלאַציע

1. צוגרייטן די מוטערבאָרד: Locate the CPU socket on your motherboard. Gently push down the small lever on the side of the socket and pull it outwards to open the metal retention frame.
2. אויספּאַקן דעם פּראַסעסאָר: Carefully remove the Intel Core i7-12700F processor from its protective packaging. Hold it by the edges to avoid touching the contacts.
3. אויסגלייַכן דעם פּראַסעסאָר: Observe the two notches on the sides of the processor. These notches must align with the corresponding keys on the CPU socket. There is also a small golden triangle on one corner of the CPU that should align with a triangle on the socket.
4. Insert the Processor: Gently place the processor into the socket. Do not force it. If it does not sit flush, re-check the alignment.
5. זיכערן דעם פּראַסעסאָר: Close the metal retention frame over the processor and push the lever back into its original position until it clicks, securing the CPU.
