cables for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected. If
possible, disconnect all power cables from the existing system before you add
a device.
• Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard, ensure
that all power cables are unplugged.
• Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord.
These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.
• Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your area. If
you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you are using, contact
your local power company.
• If the power supply is broken, do not try to x it by yourself. Contact a qualied
service technician or your retailer.

Hardware Installation
1 Before you proceed
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components
or change any motherboard settings.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any
component.
• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or
to a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling
components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity
• Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
• Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic
pad or in the bag that came with the component.
• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the ATX power
supply 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.
• Before you install the motherboard, study the conguration of your
chassis to ensure that the motherboard ts into it.
• Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the
motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage
motherboard components.

3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount socket designed for various
processors.
NOTE: Your boxed processor package should come with installation instructions
for the CPU, fan and heatsink assembly. If the instructions in this section do not
match the CPU documentation, follow the latter.
NOTE: Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the socket cap is on
the socket and the socket pins are not bent. Contact your retailer immediately
if the socket cap is missing, or if you see any damage to the socket cap/socket
pins/motherboard components.
NOTE: Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. It is required for product
returns or repairs.
NOTE: The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket pins resulting
from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or misplacement/loss/incorrect removal
of the socket cap.
Installling the CPU
1. Locate the CPU socket on the
motherboard.
