Installing the Motherboard

Safety Precautions

• Follow these safety precautions when installing the motherboard

• Wear a grounding strap attached to a grounded device to avoid dam­age from static electricity

• Discharge static electricity by touching the metal case of a safely
grounded object before working on the motherboard

• Leave components in the static-proof bags they came in

• Hold all circuit boards by the edges. Do not bend circuit boards

Choosing a Computer Case

There are many types of computer cases on the market. The motherboard complies
with the specifications for the ATX system case. Some features on the motherboard
are implemented by cabling connectors on the motherboard to indicators and switches
on the system case. Make sure that your case supports all the features required. Make
sure that your case has sufficient power and space for all drives that you intend to
install.

Most cases have a choice of I/O templates in the rear panel. Make sure that the I/O
template in the case matches the I/O ports installed on the rear edge of the
motherboard.

This motherboard carries an ATX form factor of 305 x 190 mm. Choose a case that
accommodates this form factor.

7

Installing the Motherboard in a Case

Refer to the following illustration and instructions for installing the motherboard in
a case.

Most system cases have mounting brackets installed in the case, which correspond
the holes in the motherboard. Place the motherboard over the mounting brackets
and secure the motherboard onto the mounting brackets with screws.

Ensure that your case has an I/O template that supports the I/O ports and expansion
slots on your motherboard.

Installing the Motherboard

8

Do not over-tighten the screws as this can stress the motherboard.

Checking Jumper Settings

This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configuration of the motherboard.

Setting Jumpers

Use the motherboard jumpers to set system configuration options. Jumpers with
more than one pin are numbered. When setting the jumpers, ensure that the jumper
caps are placed on the correct pins.

The illustrations show a 2-pin jumper.
When the jumper cap is placed on both
pins, the jumper is SHORT. If you re­move the jumper cap, or place the jumper
cap on just one pin, the jumper is OPEN.

This illustration shows a 3-pin jumper.
Pins 1 and 2 are SHORT.

Installing Hardware

Installing the Processor

Caution: When installing a CPU heatsink and cooling fan make sure
that you DO NOT scratch the motherboard or any of the surface­mount resistors with the clip of the cooling fan. If the clip of the cooling
fan scrapes across the motherboard, you may cause serious damage
to the motherboard or its components.

On most motherboards, there are small surface-mount resistors near
the processor socket, which may be damaged if the cooling fan is
carelessly installed.

Avoid using cooling fans with sharp edges on the fan casing and the
clips. Also, install the cooling fan in a well-lit work area so that you
can clearly see the motherboard and processor socket.

Before installing the Processor

This motherboard automatically determines the CPU clock frequency and system bus
frequency for the processor. You may be able to change the settings in the system
Setup Utility. We strongly recommend that you do not over-clock processors or
other components to run faster than their rated speed.

Warning:

1. Over-clocking components can adversely affect the reliability of the
system and introduce errors into your system. Over-clocking can per­manently damage the motherboard by generating excess heat in com­ponents that are run beyond the rated limits.

2. Always remove the AC power by unplugging the power cord from
the power outlet before installing or removing the motherboard or
other hardware components.

This motherboard has an LGA1156 socket. When choosing a processor, consider the
performance requirements of the system. Performance is based on the processor
design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of the processor, and the quantity
of internal cache memory and external cache memory.

Fail-Safe Procedures for Over-clocking

When end-users encounter failure after attempting over-clocking, please take the
following steps to recover from it.

1. Shut down the computer.

2. Press and hold the “Page Up Key (PgUp)” of the keyboard, and then boot the
PC up.

3. Two seconds after the PC boots up, release the “Page Up Key (PgUp)”.

4. The BIOS returns to the default setting by itself.

Expansion Slots

Installing Add-on Cards

The slots on this motherboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect
them to the system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the
motherboard’s features and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can in­crease the motherboard’s capabilities by adding hardware that performs tasks that are
not part of the basic system.

PCIE16X Slot

PCIE1~3 Slots

PCI1~2 Slots

The PCI Express slot is used to install an external PCI Express
graphics card that is fully compliant to the PCI Express Gen 2.

The PCI Express x1 slots are fully compliant to the PCI Express
Base Specification revision 2.0.

This motherboard are equipped with two standard PCI slots. PCI
stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus standard
for expansion cards, which for the most part, is a supplement of the
older ISA bus standard. The PCI slot on this board is PCI v2.3
compliant.

Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the
card carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may have to
manually configure the card before installation.

Installing the Motherboard

Follow these instructions to install an add-on card:

1 Remove a blanking plate from the system case corresponding to the

slot you are going to use.

2 Install the edge connector of the add-on card into the expansion slot.

Ensure that the edge connector is correctly seated in the slot.

3 Secure the metal bracket of the card to the system case with a screw.

1. For some add-on cards, for example graphics adapters and network
adapters, you have to install drivers and software before you can begin using
the add-on card.

2. The onboard PCI interface does not support 64-bit SCSI cards.
