10.Allein der Name – OC DNA* – beschreibt es wörtlich, was die Software zu leisten vermag. OC DNA ist ein von ASRock exklusiv entwickeltes Dienstprogramm, das Nutzern eine bequeme Möglichkeit bietet, Übertaktungseinstellungen aufzuzeichnen und sie Anderen mitzuteilen. Es hilft Ihnen, Ihre Übertaktungsaufzeichnung im Betriebssystem zu speichern und vereinfacht den komplizierten Aufzeichnungsvorgang von Übertaktungseinstellungen. Mit OC DNA können Sie Ihre Übertaktungseinstellungen als Profil abspeichern und Ihren Freunden zugänglich machen! Ihre Freunde können dann das Übertaktungsprofil auf ihren eigenen Systemen laden, um dieselben Übertaktungseinstellungen wie Sie zu erhalten! Beachten Sie bitte, dass das Übertaktungsprofil nur bei einem identischen Motherboard gemeinsam genutzt und funktionsfähig gemacht werden kann.

11.Obwohl dieses Motherboard stufenlose Steuerung bietet, wird Overclocking nicht empfohlen. Frequenzen, die von den empfohlenen CPU-Busfrequenzen abweichen, können Instabilität des Systems verursachen oder die CPU beschädigen.

12.Wird eine Überhitzung der CPU registriert, führt das System einen automatischen Shutdown durch. Bevor Sie das System neu starten, prüfen Sie bitte, ob der CPU-Lüfter am Motherboard richtig funktioniert, und stecken Sie bitte den Stromkabelstecker aus und dann wieder ein. Um die Wärmeableitung zu verbessern, bitte nicht vergessen, etwas Wärmeleitpaste zwischen CPU und Kühlkörper zu sprühen.

13.EuP steht für Energy Using Product und kennzeichnet die ÖkodesignRichtlinie, die von der Europäischen Gemeinschaft zur Festlegung des Energieverbrauchs von vollständigen Systemen in Kraft gesetzt wurde. Gemäß dieser Ökodesign-Richtlinie (EuP) muss der gesamte Netzstromverbrauch von vollständigen Systemen unter 1,00 Watt liegen, wenn sie ausgeschaltet sind. Um dem EuP-Standard zu entsprechen, sind ein EuP-fähiges Motherboard und eine EuP-fähige Stromversorgung erforderlich. Gemäß einer Empfehlung von Intel muss eine EuP-fähige Stromversorgung dem Standard entsprechen, was bedeutet, dass bei einem Stromverbrauch von 100 mA die 5-Volt-Standby-Energieeffizienz höher als 50% sein sollte. Für die Wahl einer EuP-fähigen Stromversorgung empfehlen wir Ihnen, weitere Details beim Hersteller der Stromversorgung abzufragen.
