WA R NING

Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting

the setting in the BIOS, applying Untied Overclocking Technology, or using the third-

party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or even

cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be done at

your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage caused by

overclocking.

CAUTION!

1. FSB1600-CPU will operate in overclocking mode. Under this situation,
PCIE frequency will also be overclocked to 120MHz. If you use a FSB1600­CPU on this motherboard, you need to adjust the jumpers. If you want to
overclock the CPU you adopt from FSB800 to FSB1066, you need to
adjust the jumpers as well. Please refer to page 19 for proper jumper
settings.

2. About the setting of “Hyper Threading Technology”, please check page

30.

3. This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology. Please read
“Untied Overclocking Technology” on page 26 for details.

4. This motherboard supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. Before
you implement Dual Channel Memory Technology, make sure to read
the installation guide of memory modules on page 16 for proper
installation.

5. There are memory module installation limitations on this motherboard,
please read “Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)” on page 16 for
details.

6. Please check the table below for the CPU FSB frequency and its
corresponding memory support frequency.

CPU FSB Frequency Memory Support Frequency

1600 DDR2 800
1333 DDR2 667, DDR2 800
1066 DDR2 667, DDR2 800

800 DDR2 667, DDR2 800

7. Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be
less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows
and Windows
bit with 64-bit CPU, there is no such limitation.

8. Although this motherboard offers stepless control, it is not recom­mended to perform over-clocking. Frequencies other than the recom­mended CPU bus frequencies may cause the instability of the system
or damage the CPU.

9. While CPU overheat is detected, the system will automatically shutdown.
Before you resume the system, please check if the CPU fan on the
motherboard functions properly and unplug the power cord, then plug it
back again. To improve heat dissipation, remember to spray thermal
grease between the CPU and the heatsink when you install the PC
system.

10. Before installing SATAII hard disk to SATAII connector, please read the
“SATAII Hard Disk Setup Guide” on page 25 to adjust your SATAII hard
disk drive to SATAII mode. You can also connect SA TA hard disk to SATAII
connector directly.

11. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft® Windows
VistaTM 64-bit / VistaTM / XP 64-bit / XP SP1 or SP2 / 2000 SP4.

Place screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the

chassis.

Do not over-tighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

2.2 Pre-installation Precautions2.2 Pre-installation Precautions

2.2 Pre-installation Precautions

2.2 Pre-installation Precautions2.2 Pre-installation Precautions

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components

or change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.

2. To avoid damaging the motherboard components due to static electricity, NEVER

place your motherboard directly on the carpet or the like. Also remember to use

a grounded wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle

components.

3. Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or

in the bag that comes with the component.

Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the power is

switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply.

Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals,

and/or components.
