Chapter 2: Installation

This is a Micro ATX form factor (9.6" x 9.6", 24.4 x 24.4 cm) motherboard. Before

you install the motherboard, study the conguration of your chassis to ensure that

the motherboard ts into it.

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

damages to motherboard components.

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

2.1 Screw Holes

Place screws into the holes to secure the motherboard to the chassis.

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

2.2 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.

11

2.3 Installation of Memory Modules (DIMM)

This motherboard provides four 240-pin DDR3 (Double Data Rate 3) DIMM

slots, and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology. For dual channel con-

guration, you always need to install identical (the same brand, speed, size

and chip-type) DDR3 DIMM pair in the slots of the same color. In other words,

you have to install identical DDR3 DIMM pair in Dual Channel (DDR3_A1 and

DDR3_B1; Blue slots) or identical DDR3 DIMM pair in Dual Channel (DDR3_

A2 and DDR3_B2; White slots), so that Dual Channel Memory Technology can

be activated. This motherboard also allows you to install four DDR3 DIMMs for

dual channel conguration, and please install identical DDR3 DIMMs in all four

slots. You may refer to the Dual Channel Memory Conguration Table below.

Dual Channel Memory Congurations

DDR3_A1 DDR3_A2 DDR3_B1 DDR3_B2

(Blue Slot) (White Slot) (Blue Slot) (White Slot)

(1) Populated - Populated -

(2) - Populated - Populated

(3)* Populated Populated Populated Populated

For the conguration (3), please install identical DDR3 DIMMs in all four

*

slots.

1. If you want to install two memory modules, for optimal compatibility

and reliability, it is recommended to install them in the slots of the

same color. In other words, install them either in the set of blue

slots (DDR3_A1 and DDR3_B1), or in the set of white slots (DDR3_

A2 and DDR3_B2).

2. If only one memory module or three memory modules are installed

in the DDR3 DIMM slots on this motherboard, it is unable to activate

the Dual Channel Memory Technology.

3. If a pair of memory modules is NOT installed in the same Dual

Cha nn el , for examp le , installi ng a p ai r of me mo ry modules in

DDR3_A1 and DDR3_A2, it is unable to activate the Dual Channel

Memory Technology .

4. It is not allowed to install a DDR or DDR2 memory module into

DDR3 slot; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be dam-

aged.

5. Some DDR3 1GB double-sided DIMMs with 16 chips may not work

on this motherboard. It is not recommended to install them on this

motherboard.

12

Installing a DIMM

Please make sure to disconnect power supply before adding or

removing DIMMs or the system components.

Step 1. Unlock a DIMM slot by pressing the retaining clips outward.

Step 2. Align a DIMM on the slot such that the notch on the DIMM matches the

break on the slot.

notc h
brea k

notc h

brea k

The DIMM only ts in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent

damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into

the slot at incorrect orientation.

Step 3. Firmly insert the DIMM into the slot until the retaining clips at both ends

fully snap back in place and the DIMM is properly seated.

13

2.4 Expansion Slots (PCI, PCI Express and mini-PCIe Slots)

There are 2 PCI slots, 2 PCI Express slots and 1 mini-PCIe slot on this

motherboard.

PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI

interface.

PCIE slots:

PCIE1 (PCIE x16 slot; Blue) is used for PCI Express x16 lane width

graphics cards.

PCIE2 (PCIE x4 slot; White) is used for PCI Express x4 lane width

graphics cards.

MINI_PCIE1 (mini-PCIe slot) is used for PCI Express mini cards.

Installing an expansion card

Step 1. Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the power

supply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the

documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware

settings for the card before you start the installation.

Step 2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed

in a chassis).

Step 3. Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the

screws for later use.

Step 4. Align the card connector with the slot and press rmly until the card is

completely seated on the slot.

Step 5. Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.

Step 6. Replace the system cover.
