Beachten Sie bitte, dass das Übertaktungsprofil nur bei einem identischen Motherboard gemeinsam genutzt und funktionsfähig gemacht werden kann.

14.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.

15.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.

16.Dieses Motherboard unterstützt die ASRock AM2 Boost Übertaktungstechnologie. Wenn Sie diese Funktion im BIOS-Setup aktivieren, wird die Arbeitsspeicherleistung um bis zu 12,5% gesteigert. Die Wirkung hängt aber von der verwendeten AM2 CPU ab. Diese

Funktion übertaktet die Standardfrequenz des Chipsatz und der CPU. Dennoch gewähren wir die Systemstabilität nicht bei allen CPU/DRAMKonfigurationen. Wird Ihr System nach dem Aktivieren der AM2 BoostFunktion unstabil, dann ist diese Funktion wahrscheinlich nicht für Ihr System geeignet. Sie können diese Funktion deaktivieren, um die Stabilität Ihres System zu bewahren.

17.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.

ASRock N68C-SE Motherboard

Hinweis:

Jumper

PS2_USB_PW1

(siehe S.2, No. 1)

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.

1.3 Einstellung der Jumper
