Installation Precautions
Please carefully read the following procedures to install your computer :
Itissuggestedtoselecthigh-quality,certiedfansinordertoavoiddamagetothe
motherboard and CPU due to high temperature. Never turn on the computer if the
CPU fan is not properly installed.
We cannot guarantee that your system can operate normally when your CPU is over
clocked. Normal operation depends on the overclocking capacity of your device.
Ifthereisany,whenconnectingUSB,audio,1394a,RS232COM,IrDAorS/PDIF
cables to the internal connectors on the motherboard, make sure their pinouts are
matching with the connectors on the motherboard. Incorrect connections might
damage the motherboard.
When handling the motherboard, avoid touching any metal leads or connectors.
If there is a PCI Express x16 graphics card installed in your system, we recommend
usinga24-pinATXpowersupplytogetthebestperformance.
Before turning on the power, please make sure the power supply AC input voltage
settinghasbeenconguredtothelocalstandard.
To prevent damage to the motherboard, do not allow screws to come in contact with
the motherboard circuit or its components. Also, make sure there are no leftover
screws or metal components placed on the motherboard or within the computer
casing.
If you are uncertain about any installation steps or have a problem related to the use
oftheproduct,pleaseconsultacertiedcomputertechnician.

Electrostaticdischarge(ESD)isthesuddenandmomentaryelectriccurrentthatows
between two objects at different electrical potentials. Normally it comes out as a spark
which will quickly damage your electronic equipment. Please wear an electrostatic
discharge (ESD) wrist strap when handling components such as a motherboard, CPU
or memory.
Ensure that the DC power supply is turned off before installing or removing CPU,
memory, expansion cards or other peripherals. It is recommended to unplug the AC
power cord from the power supply outlet. Failure to unplug the power supply cord may
result in serious damage to your system.

2-2 Install the Memory
Dual Channel Memory Conguration
This motherboard provides two DDR3 memory sockets and supports Dual Channel Technology.
When memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically check the memory in your system.
Two DDR3 memory sockets are divided into two channels:

5.Afterinstallingallexpansioncards,replacethechassiscover.
6. Turn on your computer. If necessary, go to BIOS Setup to make any required BIOS changes for
your expansion card(s).
7. Install the driver provided with the expansion card in your operating system.
Installing and Removing a PCI Express x16 Graphics Card :
• Installing a Graphics Card:
Gently insert the graphics card into the PCI Express x16 slot.
Make sure the graphics card is locked by the latch at the end of
the PCI Express x16 slot.
• Removing the Card:
Push the latch at the end of the PCI Express x16 slot to release
the card and then pull the card straight up from the slot.
■ Makesurethemotherboardsupportstheexpansioncard.Carefullyreadthemanual
that came with your expansion card.
■ Alwaysturnoffthecomputerandunplugthepowercordfromthepoweroutletbefore
installing an expansion card to prevent hardware damage.
