WARNUNG
Beachten Sie bitte, dass Overclocking, einschließlich der Einstellung im BIOS,
Anwenden der Untied Overclocking-Technologie oder Verwenden von Overclocking Werkzeugen von Dritten, mit einem gewissen Risiko behaftet ist. Overclocking kann
sich nachteilig auf die Stabilität Ihres Systems auswirken oder sogar Komponenten
und Geräte Ihres Systems beschädigen. Es geschieht dann auf eigene Gefahr und
auf Ihre Kosten. Wir übernehmen keine Verantwortung für mögliche Schäden, die
aufgrund von Overclocking verursacht wurden.
VORSICHT!
1. Die Einstellung der “Hyper-Threading Technology”, nden Sie auf Seite
61 des auf der Support-CD enthaltenen Benutzerhandbuches beschrieben.
2. Dieses Motherboard unterstützt vierkanal-DDR3-Speichertechnologie.
Vor Implementierung der vierkanal-DDR3-Speichertechnologie müssen
Sie die Installationsanleitung für die Speichermodule auf Seite 16 zwecks
richtiger Installation gelesen haben.
3. Durch Betriebssystem-Einschränkungen kann die tatsächliche Speichergröße weniger als 4 GB betragen, da unter Windows® 7 / Vista™ / XP
etwas Speicher zur Nutzung durch das System reserviert wird. Unter
Windows® OS mit 64-Bit-CPU besteht diese Einschränkung nicht. Sie
können ASRock XFast RAM zur Nutzung des Speichers, den Windows®
nicht verwenden kann, einsetzen.
4. Aktuell unterstützt der Intel® Sandy Bridge-E-Sockel-2011-Prozessor
PCIE 3.0 nicht; dieses Motherboard basiert jedoch bereits auf PCIE
3.0-Hardware. Die Aktivierung von PCIE 3.0 ist von der Intel-CPU abhängig. Bitte suchen Sie auf der Intel-Webseite nach Informationen zu
künftigen CPU-Aktualisierungen und -Veröffentlichungen.
50
ASRock X79 Extreme4 Motherboard
5. Der Mikrofoneingang dieses Motherboards unterstützt Stereo- und MonoModi. Der Audioausgang dieses Motherboards unterstützt 2-Kanal-,
4-Kanal-, 6-Kanal- und 8-Kanal-Modi. Stellen Sie die richtige Verbindung
anhand der Tabelle auf Seite 3 her.
6. ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU) ist ein Alles-in-einemWerkzeug zur Feineinstellung verschiedener Systemfunktionen an
einer benutzerfreundlichen Schnittstelle; diese beinhaltet HardwareÜberwachung, Lüftersteuerung, Übertaktung, OC DNA und IES. Über die
Hardware-Überwachung können Sie die Hauptsystemdaten einsehen.
Die Lüftersteuerung zeigt Ihnen zur Anpassung Lüftergeschwindigkeit
und Temperatur an. Bei der Übertaktung können Sie die CPU-Frequenz
zur Erzielung optimaler Systemleistung übertakten. OC DNA ermöglicht
Ihnen die Speicherung Ihrer OC-Einstellungen als Prol, welches Sie
mit Freunden teilen können. Ihre Freunde können das OC-Prol dann
in ihrem System laden und so die gleichen OC-Einstellungen erzielen.
Per IES (Intelligent Energy Saver) kann der Spannungsregulator bei
Inaktivität der CPU-Kerne die Anzahl an Ausgangsphasen zur Steigerung
der Efzienz reduzieren – ohne die Rechenleistung zu beeinträchtigen.
Hinweise zur Bedienung der ASRock Extreme Tuning Utility (AXTU)
nden Sie auf unserer Webseite.
ASRock-Webseite: http://www.asrock.com
7. ASRock Instant Flash ist ein im Flash-ROM eingebettetes BIOS-FlashProgramm. Mithilfe dieses praktischen BIOS-Aktualisierungswerkzeugs
können Sie das System-BIOS aktualisieren, ohne dafür zuerst Betriebs-
systeme wie MS-DOS oder Windows® aufrufen zu müssen. Mit diesem
Programm bekommen Sie durch Drücken der <F6>-Taste während des
POST-Vorgangs oder durch Drücken der <F2>-Taste im BIOS-Setup-
Menü Zugang zu ASRock Instant Flash. Sie brauchen dieses Werkzeug
einfach nur zu starten und die neue BIOS-Datei auf Ihrem USB-FlashLaufwerk, Diskettenlaufwerk oder der Festplatte zu speichern, und schon
können Sie Ihr BIOS mit nur wenigen Klickvorgängen ohne Bereitstellung
einer zusätzlichen Diskette oder eines anderen komplizierten Flash-Programms aktualisieren. Achten Sie darauf, dass das USB-Flash-Laufwerk
oder die Festplatte das Dateisystem FAT32/16/12 benutzen muss.
8. Wenn Sie nach einer schnelleren, weniger eingeschränkten Möglich-
keit zur Auadung Ihrer Apple-Geräte (z. B. iPhone/iPad/iPod touch)
suchen, bietet ASRock Ihnen eine wunderbare Lösung – den ASRock
APP Charger. Installieren Sie einfach den ASRock APP Charger-Treiber;
dadurch lädt sich Ihr iPhone wesentlich schneller über einen Computerauf – genaugenommen bis zu 40 % schneller als zuvor. Der ASRock APP
Charger ermöglicht Ihnen die schnelle Auadung mehrerer Apple-Geräte
gleichzeitig; der Ladevorgang wird sogar dann fortgesetzt, wenn der PC
den Ruhezustand (S1), Suspend to RAM-Modus (S3) oder Tiefschlafmodus (S4) aufruft oder ausgeschaltet wird (S5). Nach der Installation des
APP Charger-Treibers können Sie im Handumdrehen das großartigste
Ladeerlebnis überhaupt genießen.
gurieren Sie auf ideale Weise Ihre Anwendungspriorität und/oder fügen
neue Programme hinzu. Niedrigere Latenzzeit bei Spielen: Nach Einstellung einer höheren Online-Gamepriorität kann hiermit die Latenzzeit bei
Spielen herabgesetzt werden. Datenverkehrsgestaltung: Sie können
Youtube-Videos in HD anzeigen und gleichzeitig Dateien herunterladen.
Echtzeitanalyse Ihrer Daten: Über das Statusfenster können Sie schnell
ermitteln, welche Datenströme zur Zeit übertragen werden.
11. Das ASRock XFast-Ladegerät bietet die beste und schnellste Technolo-
gie zur Auadung Ihrer mobilen Geräte via PC. Über den USB-Port des
XFast-Ladegerätes können Sie Ihre Geräte jederzeit in kürzester Zeit
auaden. Zusätzlich zu Apple-Geräten kann es auch intelligente Geräte
mit dem BC 1.1-Standard auaden. Hinweise nden Sie auf Seite 30.
12. ASRock XFast RAM ist eine neue Funktion, die beim ASRock Extreme
Tuning Utility (AXTU) integriert ist. Sie ermöglicht die vollständige Nutzung des Speicherplatzes, der unter Windows®-Betriebssystemen mit
32-Bit-CPU nicht verwendet werden kann. ASRock XFast RAM verkürzt
die Ladezeit zuvor besuchter Webseiten, was das Surfen im Internet
mehr denn je beschleunigt. Auch die Arbeit mit Adobe Photoshop erfolgt
fünfmal schneller. Ein weiterer Vorteil von ASRock XFast RAM liegt in der
Reduzierung der Häugkeit des Zugriffs auf SSDs bzw. HDDs zur Verlängerung deren Lebenszeit.
13. ASRock X-FAN wird nur dann automatisch aktiviert, wenn das System
bei hoher Last oder Übertaktung eine bestimmte Temperatur erreicht.
Normalerweise bleibt ASRock X-FAN deaktiviert, damit Benutzer eine
möglichst geräuscharme Computererfahrung genießen können. Zieltemperatur und Lüftergeschwindigkeitseinstellungen können im UEFI-
Einrichtungsprogramm konguriert werden.
14. ASRock Crashless BIOS ermöglicht Benutzern die Aktualisierung ihres
BIOS, ohne dass diese Fehler fürchten müssen. Falls während der BIOS-
Deutsch
52
ASRock X79 Extreme4 Motherboard
Aktualisierung ein Stromausfall auftritt, setzt ASRock Crashless BIOS
die BIOS-Aktualisierung automatisch fort, sobald die Stromversorgung
wiederhergestellt ist. Bitte beachten Sie, dass alle BIOS-Dateien zuerst
im Stammverzeichnis Ihres USB-Datenträgers platziert werden müssen.
Diese Funktion wird nur von USB 2.0-Ports unterstützt.
15. Obwohl dieses Motherboard stufenlose Steuerung bietet, wird Overclocking nicht empfohlen. Frequenzen, die über den für den jeweiligen
Prozessor vorgesehenen liegen, können das System instabil werden
lassen oder die CPU beschädigen.
16. 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.
17. Intel Rapid Storage Technology enterprise 3.0 wird von Microsoft® Windows® XP / XP 64 Bit nicht unterstützt.
18. EuP steht für Energy Using Product und kennzeichnet die Ökodesign-Richtlinie, die von der Europäischen Gemeinschaft zur Festlegung des Energieverbrauchs von vollständigen Systemen in Kraft gesetzt wurde. 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-Energieefzienz
höher als 50% sein sollte. Für die Wahl einer EuP-fähigen Stromversorgung
empfehlen wir Ihnen, weitere Details beim Hersteller der Stromversorgung
abzufragen.

AVVISO
Si prega di prendere atto che la procedura di overclocking implica dei rischi, come
anche la regolazione delle impostazioni del BIOS, l’applicazione della tecnologia
Untied Overclocking Technology, oppure l’uso di strumenti di overclocking forniti da
terzi. L’overclocking può inuenzare la stabilità del sistema, ed anche provocare
danni ai componenti ed alle periferiche del sistema. La procedura è eseguita a pro
prio rischio ed a proprie spese. Noi non possiamo essere ritenuti responsabili per
possibili danni provocati dall’overclocking.

OC DNA ed IES. Hardware Monitor (Monitoraggio hardware) mostra le
letture principali del sistema. Fan Control (Controllo ventola) mostra la
velocità e la temperatura che possono essere regolate. Overclocking
84
ASRock X79 Extreme4 Motherboard
permette di eseguire l’overclocking della frequenza della CPU per
ottenere le prestazioni ottimali del sistema. OC DNA permette di salvare
le impostazioni OC come un prolo da condividere con gli amici! Gli amici
possono scaricare il prolo OC sul loro sistema operativo per
ottenere le stesse impostazioni OC Il regolatore di tensione di IES
(Intelligent Energy Saver) può ridurre il numero di fasi d’uscita per
migliorare l’efcienza quando i core CPU sono inattivi senza sacricare
le prestazioni di computazione. Vistare il nostro per informazioni sulle
7. ASRock Instant Flash è una utilità Flash BIOS integrata nella Flash
ROM. Questo comodo strumento d’aggiornamento del BIOS permette

Apple, è anche in grado di caricare dispositivi smart con standard BC 1.1.
Per maggiori informazioni fare riferimento a pagina 30.
12. ASRock XFast RAM è una nuova funzione inclusa in ASRock Extreme
Tuning Utility (AXTU). Utilizza completamente lo spazio che non può
essere utilizzato da CPU Windows® 32-bit. ASRock XFast RAM accorcia
i tempi di caricamento dei siti visitati in precedenza, rendendo la naviga-
zione più veloce che mai. Inoltre accelera di 5 volte la velocità di Adobe
Photoshop. Un altro vantaggio di ASRock XFast RAM è che riduce la
frequenza d’accesso alle unità SSD o HDD per allungare la loro durata.
13. ASRock X-FAN sarà attivata automaticamente solo quando il sistema
raggiunge una certa temperatura sotto carico pesante o overclocking.
Di norma ASRock X-FAN resta disattiva per dare agli utenti la massima
silenziosità. Le impostazioni di temperatura e velocità della ventola possono essere congurate usando l’utilità UEFI.
14. ASRock Crashless BIOS permette agli utenti di aggiornare il BIOS senza
paura di commettere errori. Se si verica un blackout durante la procedura di aggiornamento del BIOS, ASRock Crashless BIOS terminerà
automaticamente la procedura di aggiornamento del BIOS quando è
ripristinata la corrente. Notare che i le del BIOS devono essere collocati
nella directory principale del disco USB. Questa funzione è supportata
solo dalle porte USB2.0.
15. Anche se questa motherboard offre il controllo stepless, non si consiglia
di effettuare l’overclocking. Frequenze del bus del processore diverse da
quelle raccomandate possono causare instabilità al sistema o danni al
processore e alla scheda madre.
16. Se il processore si surriscalda, il sistema si chiude automaticamente. Pri-
ma di riavviare il sistema, assicurarsi che la ventolina CPU della scheda
madre funzioni correttamente; scollegare e ricollegare il cavo d’alimentazione. Per migliorare la dissipazione del calore, ricordare di applicare
l’apposita pasta siliconica tra il processore e il dissipatore quando si
installa il sistema.
17. Intel Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise 3.0 non è supportato da Mi-
crosoft® Windows® XP / XP 64-bit.
18. EuP, che sta per Energy Using Product (Prodotto che consuma energia) ,
era una normativa emanata dall’Unione Europea che deniva il consumo
energetico del sistema completo. In base all’EuP, l’alimentazione totale
86
ASRock X79 Extreme4 Motherboard
del sistema completo deve essere inferiore a 1,00 W quando è spento.
Per soddisfare la norma EuP sono necessari un alimentatore e una
scheda elettrica predisposti EuP. In base ai suggerimenti Intel l’alimenta-
tore predisposto EuP deve soddisfare lo standard secondo cui l’efcienza energetica in standby di 5 v è più alta del 50% con un consumo
di corrente di 100 mA. Per la scelta di un’alimentatore predisposto EuP
consigliamo di vericare ulteriori dettagli con il produttore.
