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

CAUTION!

1. This motherboard supports CPU up to 140W. Please refer to our website for
CPU support list. ASRock website

2. ASRock UCC (Unlock CPU Core) feature simplifies AMD CPU activation. As
long as a simple switch of the BIOS option “ASRock UCC”, you can unlock
the extra CPU core to enjoy an instant performance boost. When UCC
feature is enabled, the dual-core or triple-core CPU will boost to the quad­core CPU, and some CPU, including quad-core CPU, can also increase L3
cache size up to 6MB, which means you can enjoy the upgrade CPU perfor­mance with a better price. Please be noted that UCC feature is supported
with AM3/AM3+ CPU only, and in addition, not every AM3/AM3+ CPU can
support this function because some CPU’s hidden core may be
malfunctioned.

3. Whether 1866/1600MHz memory speed is supported depends on the
AM3/AM3+ CPU you adopt. If you want to adopt DDR3 1866/1600 memory
module on this motherboard, please refer to the memory support list on
our website for the compatible memory modules.
ASRock website

4. Due to the operating system limitation, the actual memory size may be
less than 4GB for the reservation for system usage under Windows® 10
/ 8.1 / 8 / 7 / Vista
such limitation.

5. This motherboard does not support RAID mode under Windows® 10
32-bit / 10 64-bit / 8.1 32-bit / 8.1 64-bit. This motherboard does not
support RAID mode with HDDs of 3TB and above.

The illustration shows how jumpers are setup.
When the jumper cap is placed on pins, the
jumper is “Short”. If no jumper cap is placed on
pins, the jumper is “Open”. The illustration
shows a 3-pin jumper whose pin1 and
pin2 are “Short” when jumper cap is placed on
these 2 pins.

Jumper Setting

Clear CMOS Jumper

(CLRCMOS1)

(see p.2 or 3, No. 9)

Note: CLRCMOS1 allows you to clear the data in CMOS. The data in CMOS includes

system setup information such as system password, date, time, and system
setup parameters. To clear and reset the system parameters to default setup,
please turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power supply.
After waiting for 15 seconds, use a jumper cap to short pin2 and pin3 on CLRCMOS1
for 5 seconds. However, please do not clear the CMOS right
after you update the BIOS. If you need to clear the CMOS when you just finish
updating the BIOS, you must boot up the system first, and then shut it down
before you do the clear-CMOS action.

If you clear the CMOS, the case open may be detected. Please adjust the
BIOS option “Clear Status” to clear the record of previous chassis intrusion
status.
