    Hi,
    I had purchased a Rampage 2 motherboard recently. I have a old Gigabyte board which I to replace the same with this. I had also purchased a Intel Core i7 processor with 4GB Corsair Ram.

    If you see the CPU proper at the corner you can notice a small yellow arrow mark. This is the location where you have to put the CPU. Then on the socket of your motherboard look closely on the four side. Either you will see one absent pin, or triangle shape arrow mark. You have to place the CPU's arrow mark exactly same on the the motherboard socket panel.
