WARNING

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. FSB1333-CPU will operate in overclocking mode. Under this situation,

PCIE frequency will also be overclocked to 115MHz.

2. About the setting of “Hyper Threading Technology”, please check page 31.

3. This motherboard supports Untied Overclocking Technology. Please read

“Untied Overclocking Technology” on page 27 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 corre-

sponding memory support frequency.

CPU FSB Frequency Memory Support Frequency

1333 DDRII533*, DDRII667

1066 DDRII533, DDRII667

800 DDRII400, DDRII533, DDRII667

533 DDRII400, DDRII533

* When you use a FSB1333-CPU on this motherboard, it will run at

DDRII500 if you adopt a DDRII533 memory module.

7. Due to the chipset limitation, the actual memory size may be less than

4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows

XP 64-bit, Windows® VistaTM and Windows® VistaTM 64-bit.

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. The maximum shared memory size is defined by the chipset vendor and

is subject to change. Please check Intel

website for the latest information.

11. For microphone input, this motherboard supports both stereo and mono

modes. For audio output, this motherboard supports 2-channel, 4-channel,

6-channel, and 8-channel modes. Please check the table on page 11 for

proper connection.

12. Before installing SATAII hard disk to SATAII connector, please read the “SATAII

Hard Disk Setup Guide” on page 26 to adjust your SATAII hard disk drive to

SATAII mode. You can also connect SATA hard disk to SATAII connector

directly.

13. Power Management for USB 2.0 works fine under Microsoft

VistaTM 64-bit / VistaTM / XP 64-bit / XP SP1 or SP2 / 2000 SP4.

XP, Windows

14. Microsoft® Windows® VistaTM / VistaTM 64-bit driver keeps on updating now. As

long as we have the latest driver, we will update it to our website in the future.

Please visit our website for Microsoft® Windows® VistaTM / VistaTM 64-bit driver

motherboard. Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your

chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it.

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the

motherboard. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries to you and

damages to motherboard components.

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.

1212

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.

2.3 CPU Installation2.3 CPU Installation

For the installation of Intel 775-LAND CPU,

please follow the steps below.

Before you insert the 775-LAND CPU into the socket, please check if

the CPU surface is unclean or if there is any bent pin on the socket.

Do not force to insert the CPU into the socket if above situation is

found. Otherwise, the CPU will be seriously damaged.

775-Pin Socket Overview

Step 1. Open the socket:

Step 1-1. Disengaging the lever by depressing

Lift Lever Up to 90°

down and out on the hook to clear

retention tab.

Step 1-2. Rotate the load lever to fully open po-

sition at approximately 135 degrees.

Step 1-3. Rotate the load plate to fully open po-

sition at approximately 100 degrees.

Step 2. Insert the 775-LAND CPU:

Step 2-1. Hold the CPU by the edges where are

marked with black lines.

Step 2-2. Orient the CPU with IHS (Integrated

Heat Sink) up. Locate Pin1 and the two

orientation key notches.

For proper inserting, please ensure to match the two orientation key

notches of the CPU with the two alignment keys of the socket.

Step 2-3. Carefully place the CPU into the socket

by using a purely vertical motion.

Step 2-4. Verify that the CPU is within the socket

and properly mated to the orient keys.

Step 3. Remove PnP Cap (Pick and Place Cap):

Use your left hand index finger and thumb to

support the load plate edge, engage PnP cap

with right hand thumb and peel the cap from the

socket while pressing on center of PnP cap to

assist in removal.

1. It is recommended to use the cap tab to handle and avoid kicking

off the PnP cap.

2. This cap must be placed if returning the motherboard for after

service.

Step 4. Close the socket:

Step 4-1. Rotate the load plate onto the IHS.

Step 4-2. While pressing down lightly on load

plate, engage the load lever.

Step 4-3. Secure load lever with load plate tab

under retention tab of load lever.
