CPU & Heatsink Installation When installing a CPU, always remember to install a CPU heatsink. A CPU heatsink is necessary to prevent overheating and maintain system stability. Follow the steps below to ensure correct CPU and heatsink installation. Wrong installation can damage both the CPU and the motherboard. English Video Demonstration Watch the video to learn how to install CPU & heatsink. at the address below. http://youtu.be/bf5La099urI 1.
When you press down the load lever the PnP cap will automatically pop up from the CPU socket. Do not discard the PnP cap. Always replace the PnP cap if the CPU is removed from the socket. 6. Evenly spread a thin layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) on the top of the CPU. This will help in heat dissipation and prevent CPU overheating. Thermal paste 7. Locate the CPU fan connector on the motherboard. 8.
Memory Installation Video Demonstration Watch the video to learn how to install memories at the address below. http://youtu.be/76yLtJaKlCQ English 1 2 3 Important • DDR3 memory modules are not interchangeable with DDR2, and the DDR3 standard is not backward compatible. Always install DDR3 memory modules in DDR3 DIMM slots. • To ensure system stability, memory modules must be of the same type and density in Dual-Channel mode.
Internal Connectors These connectors allow you to connect an ATX power supply. To connect the ATX power supply, align the power supply cable with the connector and firmly press the cable into the connector. If done correctly, the clip on the power cable should be hooked on the motherboard’s power connector.

SATA1~4: SATA Connectors This connector is a high-speed SATA interface port. Each connector can connect to one SATA device. SATA devices include disk drives (HDD), solid state drives (SSD), and optical drives (CD/ DVD/ Blu-Ray). Video Demonstration English Watch the video to learn how to Install SATA HDD. http://youtu.be/RZsMpqxythc Important • Many SATA devices also need a power cable from the power supply.
The fan power connectors support system cooling fans with +12V. If the motherboard has a System Hardware Monitor chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with a speed sensor to take advantage of the CPU fan control. Remember to connect all system fans. Some system fans may not connect to the motherboard and will instead connect to the power supply directly. A system fan can be plugged into any available system fan connector. CPUFAN/ SYSFAN1 SYSFAN2 d n u ro 2V se .G 1 1 .+ o U 2 .
JFP1, JFP2: System Panel Connectors These connectors connect to the front panel switches and LEDs. The JFP1 connector is compliant with the Intel® Front Panel I/O Connectivity Design Guide. When installing the front panel connectors, please use the optional M-Connector to simplify installation. Plug all the wires from the computer case into the M-Connector and then plug the M-Connector into the motherboard.

JBAT1: Clear CMOS Jumper There is CMOS RAM onboard that is external powered from a battery located on the motherboard to save system configuration data. With the CMOS RAM, the system can automatically boot into the operating system (OS) every time it is turned on. If you want to clear the system configuration, set the jumpers to clear the CMOS RAM. English 1 1 Keep Data Clear Data Important You can clear the CMOS RAM by shorting this jumper while the system is off. Afterwards, open the jumper .
PCI_E1~2: PCIe Expansion Slots PCIe 3.0 x16 Slot PCIe 2.0 x1 Slot Important When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion card’s documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software changes. 25 English The PCIe slot supports the PCIe interface expansion card.
BIOS Setup The default settings offer the optimal performance for system stability in normal conditions. You may need to run the Setup program when: English ■ An error message appears on the screen during the system booting up, and requests you to run SETUP. ■ You want to change the default settings for customized features. Important • Please load the default settings to restore the optimal system performance and stability if the system becomes unstable after changing BIOS settings.
