CPU (Central Processing Unit)

When you are installing the CPU, make sure that you install the cooler to
prevent overheating. If you do not have the CPU cooler, consult your dealer
before turning on the computer.

Important

Overheating

Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure
the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating.
Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape)
between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.

Replacing the CPU

While replacing the CPU, always turn off the power supply or unplug the

power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet rst to ensure the

safety of CPU.

CPU & Cooler Installation

When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler at­tached on the top to prevent overheating. Meanwhile, do not forget to
apply some thermal paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler
fan for better heat dispersion.

Follow the steps below to install the CPU & cooler correctly. Wrong instal­lation will cause damage to your CPU & mainboard.

1. Open the load lever. 2. Lift the load lever up to fully
open position.

3. After con󰘰rming the CPU

direction for correct mating,
put down the CPU in the
socket housing frame. Be
sure to grasp on the edge of
the CPU base. Note that the
alignment keys are matched.

4. Remove the plastic cap.
Engage the load lever while
pressing down lightly onto
the load plate.

Important

Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well into the socket. If not, take out
the CPU with pure vertical motion and reinstall.

5. Secure the lever near the
hook end under the reten­tion tab.

6. Make sure the four hooks are
in proper position before you
install the cooler. Align the
holes on the mainboard with
the cooler. Push down the
cooler until its four clips get
wedged into the holes of the
mainboard.

2-5

7. Press the four hooks down to
fasten the cooler. Turn over

the mainboard to con󰘰rm

that the clip-ends are cor­rectly inserted.

8. Finally, attach the CPU Fan
cable to the CPU fan con­nector on the mainboard.

Important

•

Con󰘰rm if your CPU cooler is 󰘰rmly installed before turning on your

system.

•

Do not touch the CPU socket pins to avoid damaging.

•

Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pin
with the plastic cap covered to avoid damaging.

•

Please refer to the documentation in the CPU cooler package for more
details about the CPU cooler installation.

▶ Full Screen Logo Display

This BIOS feature determines if the BIOS should hide the normal POST
messages with the motherboard or system manufacturer’s full-screen logo.
When it is enabled, the BIOS will display the full-screen logo during the
boot-up sequence, hiding normal POST messages.

When it is disabled, the BIOS will display the normal POST messages, in­stead of the full-screen logo.

Please note that enabling this BIOS feature often adds 2-3 seconds of delay
to the booting sequence. This delay ensures that the logo is displayed for a

sufcient amount of time. Therefore, it is recommended that you disable this

BIOS feature for a faster boot-up time.

This item is used to determine the display mode when an optional ROM is

by AMI BIOS is used. Select [Keep Current] if you want to use the display
mode of optional ROM.

▶ PCI/PCIE Device Conguration

▶ PCI Latency Timer

This item controls how long each PCI device can hold the bus before
another takes over. When set to higher values, every PCI device can
conduct transactions for a longer time and thus improve the effective
PCI bandwidth. For better PCI performance, you should set the item
to higher values.

▶ EHCI1, EHCI2

These settings disable/ enable the USB EHCI controllers. The

Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) specication describes the

register-level interface for a Host Controller for the USB 2.0.

▶ xHCI Mode

This setting allows user to determine the operating mode for the xHCI
controller in the operation system. There are four options:

■ Smart Auto: This mode is available when the BIOS supports xHCI

controller in pre-boot environment. This mode is similar to Auto
mode, but it is with capability to route the ports to xHCI or EHCI
according to setting used in previous boots (for non-G3 boot) in
the pre-boot environment. This allows the use of USB 3.0 devices
prior to OS boot. When previous boot routs ports to EHCI, xHCI
controller enabling and rerouting should follow the steps in Auto.
Note: This would be the recommended mode when BIOS has xHCI
preboot support. (Default)

■ Auto: BIOS routes shared ports to EHCI controller. And it uses

ACPI protocols to provide an option to enable xHCI controller and
reroute the shared ports. Note: This would be the recommended
mode when BIOS does NOT have xHCI pre-boot support.

GMB-Q7710-LLVA User’s manual

3-8

■ Enabled: All shared ports are eventually routed to the xHCI control-

ler during the BIOS boot process. If BIOS does NOT have pre-boot
support for the xHCI controller, it should initially route the sharable
ports to the EHCI controller and then prior to OS boot it should
route the ports to xHCI controller. Note: OS has to provide support
for the xHCI controller in this mode. If the OS does not provide sup­port, all sharable ports will not work.

■ Disabled: The USB 3.0 ports are routed to the EHCI controller and

the xHCI controller is turned off. All USB 3.0 devices function as
High Speed devices regardless of xHCI software support/ avail­ability.

▶ Legacy USB Support

Set to [Enabled] if you need to use any USB 1.1/2.0 device in the
operating system that does not support or have any USB 1.1/2.0 driver
installed, such as DOS and SCO Unix.

▶ Audio Controller

This setting enables/disables the onboard audio controller.

▶ Launch OnChip Lan OpROM/ Launch OnBoard Lan OpROM

These settings enable/disable the initialization of the onchip/ onboard
PXE Boot ROM during bootup. Selecting [Disabled] will speed up the

processor package. Note that this eld is present only when a multi-

core processor is installed.

GMB-Q7710-LLVA User’s manual

▍ BIOS Setup

▶ Execute Disable Bit

Intel’s Execute Disable Bit functionality can prevent certain classes of mali-

cious “buffer overow” attacks when combined with a supporting operating

system. This functionality allows the processor to classify areas in memory
by where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a mali­cious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables
code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.

▶ Intel Virtualization Tech

Virtualization enhanced by Intel Virtualization Technology will allow a plat­form to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent
partitions. With virtualization, one computer system can function as mul-

tiple “Virtual” systems.

▶ EIST

EIST (Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology) allows the system to dy­namically adjust processor voltage and core frequency, which can result
in decreased average power consumption and decreased average heat
production.

When disabled, the processor will return the actual maximum CPUID input
value of the processor when queried.
