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

recever s connected.

Consult the dealer or an experenced rado/televson techncan for help.

Assembly Precautons

The components ncluded n ths package are prone to damage from electrostatc

dscharge (ESD). Please adhere to the followng nstructons to ensure successful

computer assembly.

Always turn o the power supply and unplug the power cord from the power outlet

before nstallng or removng any computer component.

Ensure that all components are securely connected. Loose connectons may cause

the computer to not recognze a component or fal to start.

Hold the manboard by the edges to avod touchng senstve components.

It s recommended to wear an electrostatc dscharge (ESD) wrst strap when handlng

the manboard to prevent electrostatc damage. If an ESD wrst strap s not avalable,

dscharge yourself of statc electrcty by touchng another metal object before han-

dlng the manboard.

Store the manboard n an electrostatc sheldng contaner or on an antstatc pad

whenever the manboard s not nstalled.

Before turnng on the computer, ensure that there are no loose screws or metal com-

ponents on the manboard or anywhere wthn the computer case.

Do not use the computer n a hgh-temperature envronment.

Do not boot the computer before nstallaton s completed. Ths could cause perma-

nent damage to the components as well as njury to the user.

If you need help durng any nstallaton step, please consult a certed computer tech-

ncan.

Important

A screwdrver (not ncluded) may be requred for computer assembly.

Overheatng

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

fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheatng. Make sure that you 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

Whle replacng the CPU, always turn o the system's power supply and unplug the

power supply’s power cord.

Overclockng

Ths manboard 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

attempt to operate beyond product speccatons s not recommend. MSI does not

guarantee the damages or rsks caused by nadequate operaton beyond product

CPU & Cooler Installaton

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

necessary 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 manboard.

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

socket. 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

correct t.

3. Close the loadng plate and remove

the plastc protectve cap.

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

To prevent damage to the manboard, any contact between the manboard crcutry

and the computer case, except for the mountng stands, s prohbted.

Please make sure there are no loose metal components on the manboard or wthn

the computer case that may cause a short crcut of the manboard.

The I/O ports should be facng toward

the rear of the computer case. They

should lne up wth the holes on the

I/O backplate.
