2.3.2 Installation of the CPU Cooler
For proper installation, please kindly refer to the instruction manuals of your CPU Cooler.
2.4 Installation of Memory Modules
This mainboard provides two 204-pin DDRIII (Double Data Rate) SODIMM slots and supports
Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel conguration, you always need to install two
identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type) memory modules in the DDRIII DIMM slots
to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology. Otherwise, it will operate at single channel mode.
To install system memory:
1. Power off the computer and unplug the AC power cord before
installing or removing memory modules.
2. Locate the DIMM slot on the board.
3. Insert the SODIMM module at a 45 degree angle.
4. Push the SODIMM module back towards theboard until the clips
lock the module in place.
5. To remove the DIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the
slot outward simultaneously, and then pull out the DIMM module.
Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the
computer or optional boards. Before starting these procedures,
ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by touching
a grounded metal object briey.
We suggest there should be active cooling to the chipset area in order to let the motherboard
function properly, completely enclosed system environment without adequate air ow will result
in chipset overheat, which is not recommended.
