GA-8IRXR-A/GA-8IRXR-B Motherboard

Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To

protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you

work on your computer.

1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have

one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as

the power supply case.

3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or

other components.

4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the

components whenever the components are separated from the system.

5. Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX

power connector on the motherboard.

If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don’t line up with the holes on the base and there are

no slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting

holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful

of your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short

circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard

PCB surface, because the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don’t let the screw contact

any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the

board or cause board malfunctioning.

Socket Actuation Lever

1. Pull up the CPU socket lever

and up to 90-degree angle.

Pin1 indicator

2. Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look

for a (golden) cut edge on the CPU

upper corner. Then insert the CPU

into the socket.

3. Press down the CPU socket

lever and finish CPU installation.

00

0 Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.

Hardware Installation Process

Step 2: Install memory modules

The motherboard has 2 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically

detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM Slot.

The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can vary between

sockets.

DDR

1. The DIMM slot has a notch, so the

DIMM memory module can only fit in one direction.

2. Insert the DIMM memory module verticallyinto the

DIMM slot. Then push it down.

3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of theDIMM slots

to lock the DIMM module.

0 Reverse the installation steps when you wish to

remove the DIMM module.

Established on the existing SDRAM industry infrastructure, DDR (Double Data Rate) memory is a

high performance and cost-effective solution that allows easy adoption for memory vendors, OEMs and

system integrators.

DDR memory is a sensible evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing

SDRAM infrastructure, yet makes awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck by

doubling the memory bandwidth. DDR SDRAM will offer a superior solution and migration path from

existing SDRAM designs due to its availability, pricing and overall market support. PC2100 DDR

memory (DDR266) doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of

the clock, achieving data bandwidth 2X greater than PC133 when running with the same DRAM clock

frequency. With peak bandwidth of 2.1GB per second, DDR memory enables system OEMs to build

high performance and low latency DRAM subsystems that are suitable for servers, workstations, high-

end PC's and value desktop SMA systems. With a core voltage of only 2.5 Volts compared to

conventional SDRAM's 3.3 volts, DDR memory is a compelling solution for small form factor desktops

and notebook applications.
