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 wll serously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the coolng

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

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

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
