Overview of Components

CPU Socket

Introduction to the LGA 1151 CPU

The surface of the LGA 1151 CPU has

two notches and a golden triangle to

assist in correctly lining up the CPU for

motherboard placement. The golden

triangle is the Pin 1 indicator.

Important

y

Always unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing or removing

the CPU.

y

Please retain the CPU protective cap after installing the processor. MSI will deal with

Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests if only the motherboard comes with

the protective cap on the CPU socket.

y

When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink

is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability.

y

Confirm that the CPU heatsink has formed a tight seal with the CPU before booting

your system.

y

Overheating can seriously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure

the cooling fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Be sure to apply

an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to

enhance heat dissipation.

y

Whenever the CPU is not installed, always protect the CPU socket pins by covering

the socket with the plastic cap.

y

If you purchased a separate CPU and heatsink/ cooler, Please refer to the

documentation in the heatsink/ cooler package for more details about installation.

y

This motherboard is designed to support overclocking. Before attempting to

overclock, please make sure that all other system components can tolerate

overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product specifications is not

recommended. MSI

®

does not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate

operation beyond product specifications.

DIMMB2 DIMMB2

DIMMB1

DIMMA2 DIMMA2 DIMMA2

DIMMA1

Important

y

Always insert memory modules in the DIMMA2 slot first.

y

Due to chipset resource usage, the available capacity of memory will be a little less

than the amount of installed.

y

Based on Intel CPU specification, the Memory DIMM voltage below 1.35V is

suggested to protect the CPU.

y

Please note that the maximum capacity of addressable memory is 4GB or less

for 32-bit Windows OS due to the memory address limitation. Therefore, we

recommended that you to install 64-bit Windows OS if you want to install more than

4GB memory on the motherboard.

y

Some memory may operate at a lower frequency than the marked value when

overclocking due to the memory frequency operates dependent on its Serial Presence

Detect (SPD). Go to BIOS and find the Memory Try It! to set the memory frequency if

you want to operate the memory at the marked or at a higher frequency.

y

It is recommended to use a more efficient memory cooling system for full DIMMs

installation or overclocking.

y

The stability and compatibility of installed memory module depend on installed CPU

and devices when overclocking.

Multiple graphics cards installation recommendation

x16

x4

Important

y

For a single PCIe x16 expansion card installation with optimum performance, using

the PCI_E1 slot is recommended.

y

When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and

unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion

card’s documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software

changes.

y

If you install a large and heavy graphics card, you need to use a tool such as

MSI Gaming Series Graphics Card Bolster to support its weight and to prevent

deformation of the slot.

y

PCI_E3 slot will be unavailable when an M.2 PCIe SSD module has been installed in

the M2_2 slot.
