Motherboard information

2.1 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

CAUTION!

• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any

component.

• Before handling components, use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely

grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, to avoid

damaging them due to static electricity.

• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic

pad or in the bag that came with the component.

• Before you install or remove any component, always remove the AC power

by unplugging the power cord from the power outlet. Failure to do so may

cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, or components.

IMPORTANT! Unplug all power cables before installing the CPU.

CAUTION!

• Upon purchase of the motherboard, ensure that the PnP cap is on

the socket and the socket contacts are not bent. Contact your retailer

immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the

PnP cap/socket contacts/motherboard components. The manufacturer will

shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/transit-related.

• Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. The manufacturer will

process Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if the

motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA1200 socket.

• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket contacts

resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/

incorrect removal of the PnP cap.

2.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA1700 socket designed for the

Intel® 12th Generation Intel® Core™ i9 / Core™ i7 / Core™ i5 / Core™ i3, Pentium®,

and Celeron® processors.

5. Chassis Intrude header (4-1 pin CHASSIS)

This header is for a chassis-mounted intrusion detection sensor or switch.

Connect one end of the chassis intrusion sensor or switch cable to this

connector. The chassis intrusion sensor or switch sends a high-level signal to

this connector when a chassis component is removed or replaced. The signal

is then generated as a chassis intrusion event.

By default, the pin labeled “Chassis Signal” and “Ground” are shorted with

jumper caps. Remove the jumper caps only when you intend to use the

chassis intrusion detection feature.
