components without causing any signs of physical damage. You must take extra care in han-
dling them to ensure against electrostatic build-up.
1. To prevent electrostatic build-up, leave the system board in its anti-static bag until you
are ready to install it.
2. Wear an antistatic wrist strap.
3. Do all preparation work on a static-free surface.
4. Hold the device only by its edges. Be careful not to touch any of the components, con-
tacts or connections.
5. Avoid touching the pins or contacts on all modules and connectors. Hold modules or
connectors by their ends.
Safety Measures
• To avoid damage to the system, use the correct AC input voltage range.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the power cord before removing the sys-
tem chassis cover for installation or servicing. After installation or servicing, cover the
system chassis before plugging the power cord.
Important:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your processor, disk drive and other
components. Perform the upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD
workstation only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD pro-
tection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the
system chassis. If a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with
the system chassis throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.

X Features
Watchdog Timer
The Watchdog Timer function allows your application to regularly “clear” the system at the set
time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset at the set time interval so that
your system will continue to operate.
DDR4
DDR4 delivers increased system bandwidth and improves performance. The advantages of
DDR4 provide an extended battery life and improve the performance at a lower power than
DDR3/DDR2.
Serial ATA
Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 1.0a specification. With speed of
up to 6Gb/s (SATA 3.0), it improves hard drive performance faster than the standard parallel
ATA whose data transfer rate is 100MB/s.
Gigabit LAN
Two Intel
®
Gigabit LAN controllers (Intel
®
I210AT PCIe) support up to 1Gbps data transmis-
sion.
Audio
The Realtek ALC887 audio codec provides high-performance of 7.1 channel High Definition
audio output.
Wake-On-LAN
This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. It is
supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN card that uses the PCI PME (Power Man-
agement Event) signal. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the
system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.
Wake-On-USB
This function allows you to use a USB keyboard or USB mouse to wake up a system from the
S3 (STR - Suspend To RAM) state.
PCI Express
PCI Express is a high bandwidth I/O infrastructure that possesses the ability to scale speeds
by forming multiple lanes. The x4 PCI Express lane supports transfer rate of 4 Gigabyte per
second (2 directions). The PCI Express architecture also supports high performance graphics
infrastructure by enhancing the capability of a PCIe x16 Gen 3 at 16GB/s bandwidth (8GB/s in
each direction).
ACPI STR
The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface)
specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Manage-
ment and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management.
ACPI when enabled in the Power Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend to RAM
function.
With the Suspend to RAM function enabled, you can power-off the system at once by pressing
the power button or selecting “Standby” when you shut down Windows
®
without having to go
through the sometimes tiresome process of closing files, applications and operating system.
This is because the system is capable of storing all programs and data files during the entire
operating session into RAM (Random Access Memory) when it powers-off. The operating ses-
sion will resume exactly where you left off the next time you power-on the system.
Power Failure Recovery
When power returns after an AC power failure, you may choose to either power-on the system
manually or let the system power-on automatically.
USB
The system board supports the new USB 3.1 Gen 1. It is capable of running at a maximum
transmission speed of up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s), and is faster than USB 2.0 (480 Mbit/s, or 60
MB/s) and USB 1.1 (12Mb/s). USB 3.1 reduces the time required for data transmission, reduc-
es power consumption, and is backward compatible with USB 2.0. It is a marked improvement
in device transfer speeds between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously acces-
sible external Plug and Play peripherals.
RTC Timer
The Real Time Clock (RTC) installed on the system board allows your system to automatically
power-on on the set date and time.

Installing the CPU, Fan and Heat Sink
The CPU must be kept cool by using a CPU fan with heat sink. Without sufficient air circula-
tion across the CPU and heat sink, the CPU will overheat damaging both the CPU and system
board.
1. Before you place the CPU on the heat sink, you must apply a thermal paste onto the
top of the heat sink. The thermal paste is usually supplied when you purchase the fan
with heat sink assembly. Do not spread the paste all over the surface. When you later
place the CPU on top of the heat sink, the compound will disperse evenly.
Some heat sinks come with a patch of pre-applied thermal paste. Do not apply thermal
paste if the fan with heat sink already has a patch of thermal paste on its underside.
Peel the strip that covers the paste before you place the CPU on top of the heat sink.
2. To insert the CPU into the CPU carrier, please first locate the gold triangular mark on
the CPU. The triangular mark must align with the triangular corner of the CPU carrier
shown on the photo. Without touching the pins, press the CPU onto the carrier until the
CPU is retained by the latches.

Protective cap
Important:
1. Before you proceed, make sure (1) the LGA 3647 socket comes with 2 protec-
tive caps, (2) the caps are not damaged and (3) the socket’s contact pins are not
bent. If the caps are missing or the caps and/or contact pins are damaged, con-
tact your dealer immediately.
2. Make sure to keep the protective caps. RMA requests will be accepted and pro-
cessed only if the LGA 3647 socket comes with the protective caps.
Note:
A boxed Intel
®
processor already includes the CPU fan and heat sink assembly. If
your CPU was purchased separately, make sure to only use Intel®-certified fan and
heat sink.

5. Align the triangular mark of
the CPU and CPU carrier to
the chamfer corner of the
CPU and heat sink socket.
Place the heatsink assem-
bly on top of the socket.
Use the T30 screwdriver
to install the assembly ac-
cording to the sequence of
the screws shown on the
label.
6. Connect the CPU fan’s
power cable to the CPU fan
connector on the system
board.
3. Place the CPU carrier on
top of the heatsink. Place
the triangular hole near the
mounting hole #1 of the
heat sink. Use the push-
pins around the CPU car-
rier to secure the CPU car-
rier onto the heat sink.
You will hear a distinctive
“click”, indicating the CPU
carrier is correctly locked
into position.

Power Connector
Use a power supply that complies with the ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide Version 1.1. An
ATX12V power supply unit has a standard 24-pin ATX main power connector that must be in-
serted into the 24-pin connector. The 8-pin +12V power connector enables the delivery of more
+12VDC current to the processor’s Voltage Regulator Module (VRM).
The power connectors from the power supply unit are designed to fit the 24-pin and 8-pin con-
nectors in only one orientation. Make sure to find the proper orientation before plugging the
connectors.
The system board requires a minimum of 300 Watt power supply to operate. Your system con-
figuration (CPU power, amount of memory, add-in cards, peripherals, etc.) may exceed the mini-
mum power requirement. To ensure that adequate power is provided, we strongly recommend
that the system is supplied with a minimum of 400 Watt power.

Important:
Insufficient power supplied to the system may result in instability or malfunction
of the add-in boards and peripherals. Calculating the system’s approximate power
usage is important to ensure that the power supply meets the system’s consump-
tion requirements.
