2.1. Processor Installation
Before handling the processor, ensure you take proper electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions. Avoid building on carpeted surfaces. Consider using an ESD wrist strap connected to a grounded metal object, such as your power supply (with the power supply turned off and unplugged from the wall, but still connected to the motherboard).
- Carefully remove the AMD Ryzen 5 5600 processor from its packaging. Note the small golden triangle on one corner of the processor. This triangle indicates the correct orientation for installation.
- Locate the CPU socket on your motherboard. Lift the metal retention arm on the CPU socket.
- Align the golden triangle on the processor with the corresponding triangle on the CPU socket. Gently lower the processor into the socket. It should drop in effortlessly without requiring force. If it does not, do not force it; re-check the alignment and ensure the retention arm is fully raised.
- Once the processor is seated, lower the metal retention arm to secure it in place.

2.2. Wraith Stealth Cooler Installation
The AMD Ryzen 5 5600 comes with a Wraith Stealth Cooler. This cooler has thermal compound pre-applied to its base, so no additional thermal paste is needed for the initial installation.
- Position the Wraith Stealth Cooler over the installed CPU, aligning the mounting clips or screws with the motherboard's retention brackets.
- Secure the cooler by engaging the clips or tightening the screws. Ensure even pressure is applied to prevent damage to the CPU or motherboard.
- Connect the cooler's fan cable to the CPU_FAN header on your motherboard.

2.3. BIOS Update
Updating your motherboard's BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is crucial for optimal performance and stability, especially when installing a new generation processor. The BIOS contains low-level software that manages hardware components.
- Visit your motherboard manufacturer's official website and navigate to the support section for your specific motherboard model.
- Download the latest BIOS update file. Ove files are often stored on a USB flash drive.
- Access the BIOS settings on your PC by pressing the designated key (commonly Delete, F2, F10, or F12) during system startup.
- Within the BIOS interface, locate the "Update BIOS" or "Flash BIOS" utility. Follow the on-screen instructions to load the update file from your USB drive and initiate the update process. Do not interrupt the update process.

4.1. Thermal Paste Reapplication
Over time, the thermal compound on your CPU cooler may degrade, impacting cooling performance. If you notice higher temperatures or plan to re-install your cooler, it is recommended to reapply thermal paste.
- Carefully remove the CPU cooler.
- Clean off any old thermal paste from both the CPU's integrated heat spreader (IHS) and the cooler's base using isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth.
- Apply a small amount (pea-sized dot or a thin X-shape) of new, high-quality thermal compound to the center of the CPU's IHS.
- Reinstall the CPU cooler, ensuring even pressure to spread the thermal paste.
Note: Too much or too little thermal compound can negatively affect temperatures. Aim for a thin, even layer.
5. Otkrivanje problema
| Issue | Mogući uzrok | Rješenje |
|---|---|---|
| System fails to boot after CPU installation. | Incorrect CPU seating, bent pins, outdated BIOS. | Re-seat CPU, check for bent pins (handle with extreme care), update BIOS (refer to Section 2.3). |
| Visoke temperature CPU-a. | Improper cooler installation, insufficient thermal paste, poor case airflow. | Ensure cooler is securely mounted, reapply thermal paste (refer to Section 4.1), improve case ventilation. |
| Nestabilnost ili padovi sistema. | Outdated BIOS, driver issues, insufficient power supply, RAM incompatibility. | Update BIOS and drivers, ensure adequate PSU wattage, check RAM compatibility with motherboard. |
