FCC-B Rado Frequency Interference Statement

Ths equpment has been tested and

can radate rado frequency energy and, f not nstalled and used n accordance wth

the nstructons, may cause harmful nterference to rado communcatons. However,

there s no guarantee that nterference wll not occur n a partcular nstallaton. If ths

equpment does cause harmful nterference to rado or televson recepton, whch can

be determned by turnng the equpment o and on, the user s encouraged to try to

correct the nterference by one or more of the measures lsted below.

Reorent or relocate the recevng antenna.

Increase the separaton between the equpment and recever.

Connect the equpment nto an outlet on a crcut derent from that to whch the

USB 2.0 Port

The USB 2.0 port s for attachng USB 2.0 devces such as keyboard, mouse, or other

USB 2.0-compatble devces.

USB 3.0 Port (optonal)

USB 3.0 port s backward-compatble wth USB 2.0 devces. It supports data transfer

rate up to 5 Gbt/s (SuperSpeed).

Important

In order to use USB 3.0 devces, you must connect to a USB 3.0 port. If a USB cable s

used, t must be USB 3.0 complant.

Overheatng

Overheatng can serously damage the CPU and motherboard. Always make sure the

coolng fans work properly to protect the CPU from overheatng. Be sure to apply an

even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsnk to

enhance heat dsspaton.

Replacng the CPU

When replacng the CPU, always turn o the system’s power supply and unplug the

power supply’s power cord to ensure the safety of the CPU.

Overclockng

Ths motherboard s desgned to support overclockng. Before attemptng to overclock,

please make sure that all other system components can tolerate overclockng. Any at

-

tempt to operate beyond product speccatons s not recommend. MSI does not guar-

antee the damages or rsks caused by nadequate operaton beyond product specca-

tons.

CPU & Cooler Installaton

When nstallng a CPU, always remember to nstall a CPU cooler. A CPU cooler s nec-

essary to prevent overheatng and mantan system stablty. Follow the steps below to

ensure correct CPU and CPU cooler nstallaton. Wrong nstallaton can damage both

the CPU and the motherboard.

Unhook and lft the loadng lever to

the fully open poston.

1. The loadng plate should automat-

cally lft up as the loadng lever s

pushed to the fully open poston.

Do not touch any of the CPU socket

pns.

2.

Lne up the CPU to t the CPU sock

-

et. Be sure to hold the CPU by the

base wth the metal contacts facng

downward. The algnment keys on

the CPU wll lne up wth the edges

of the CPU socket to ensure a cor-

rect t.

3. Close the loadng plate and remove

the plastc protectve cap.

Inspect the CPU to check f t s prop-

erly seated n the socket. Press the

loadng lever down and lock t under

the retenton tab.

5. Evenly spread a thn layer of thermal

paste (or thermal tape) on the top of

the CPU. Ths wll help n heat ds-

spaton and prevent CPU overheat-

ng.

6.

Locate the CPU fan connector on the

motherboard.

7. Place the heatsnk on the mother-

board wth the fan’s wres facng

towards the fan connector and the

hooks matchng the holes on the

motherboard.
