Chapter 2 Installation

This is a Mini-ITX form factor (6.7'' x 6.7'', 17.0 cm x 17.0 cm) motherboard. Before

you install the motherboard, study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that the

motherboard ts into it.

2.1 Screw Holes

Place screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.

2.2 Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or

change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any components.

2. To avoid damaging the motherboard’s components due to static electricity, NEVER

place your motherboard directly on the carpet or the like. Also remember to use a

grounded wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the compo-

nents.

3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded anti-static pad or in

the bag that comes with the component.

5. When placing screws into the screw holes to secure the motherboard to the chassis,

please do not over-tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure

to do so may cause physical injuries to you and damages to motherboard components.

Do not over-tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the power is switched o or the

power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to

the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.

2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

is motherboard provides four 288-pin DDR4 (Double Data Rate 4) DIMM slots, and

supports Dual / Quad Channel Memory Technology.

*Since installing three memory modules is NOT supported on this motherboard, we suggest not using

this conguration.

1. For dual channel conguration, you always need to install identical (the same brand,

speed, size and chip-type) DDR4 DIMM pairs.

2. It is not allowed to install a DDR, DDR2 or DDR3 memory module into a DDR4 slot;

otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.

3. Please install the memory module on CH0_A1 for the rst priority.

4. To activate Dual Channel Memory Technology, please follow the “Dual Channel Memory

Conguration” table below.

e DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to the

motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the slot at incorrect orientation.
