Installing the Motherboard
2-1. 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.
•Always remove the AC power by unplugging the power cord from the power
outlet before installing or removing the motherboard or other hardware
components.
2-2. Installing the motherboard in a Chassis
This motherboard carries a Thin Mini ITX form factor of 170 x 170 mm. Choose a
chassis that accommodates this form factor. Make sure that the I/O template in the
chassis matches the I/O ports installed on the rear edge of the motherboard. Most
system chassis have mounting brackets installed in the chassis, which corresponds
to the holes in the motherboard. Place the motherboard over the mounting brackets and secure the motherboard onto the mounting brackets with screws.
Chapter 2
Do not over-tighten the screws as this can stress the motherboard.

2-3. Checking Jumper Settings
This section explains how to set jumpers for correct configuration of the
motherboard.
1.When your panel connects to LVDS, please check LCD_SEL header setting
first.
2.Due to the differences of the panel parameters, please follow the above
illustration to place the jumper caps.

2. CLR_CMOS: Clear CMOS jumper
The following illustration shows the location of the motherboard jumpers. Pin 1 is
labeled.
To avoid the system instability after clearing CMOS, we recommend users to
enter the main BIOS setting page to “Load Default Settings” and then “Save
and Exit Setup”.

2-4. Installing Hardware
2-4-1. Installing the Processor
Chapter 2
•This motherboard has an LGA1150 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.
•You may be able to change the settings in the system Setup Utility. We
strongly recommend you do not over-clock processor or other
components to run faster than their rated speed.
•The following illustration shows CPU installation components.
A. Press the hook of lever down with your thumb and pull it to the right
side to release it from retention tab.
B. Lift the tail of the load lever and rotate the load plate to fully open
position.
10
C. Grasp the edge of the package substrate. Make sure pin 1 indicator
is on your bottom-left side. Aim at the socket and place the package
carefully into the socket by purely vertical motion.
H87H3-TI USER MANUAL
D. Rotate the load plate onto the package IHS (Intergraded Heat
Spreader). Engage the load lever while pressing down lightly onto the
load plate. Secure the load lever with the hook under retention tab. Then
the cover will flick automatically.
Please save and replace the cover onto the CPU socket if processor is removed.

2-4-2. Installing the CPU Cooler
Chapter 2
•Install the cooling fan in a well-lit work area so that you can clearly see the
motherboard and processor socket.
•Avoid using cooling fans with sharp edges in case the fan casing and the
clips cause serious damage to the motherboard or its components.
•To achieve better airflow rates and heat dissipation, we suggest that you
use a high quality fan with 3800 rpm at least. CPU fan and heat sink
installation procedures may vary with the type of CPU fan/heatsink
supplied. The form and size of fan/heatsink may also vary.
•DO NOT remove the CPU cap from the socket before installing a CPU.
•Return Material Authorization (RMA) requests will be accepted only if the
motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA1150 socket.
•The following illustration shows how to install CPU fan.
A. Apply some thermal grease onto the contacted area between the
heatsink and the CPU, and make it to be a thin layer.
B. Fasten the cooling fan supporting base onto the CPU socket on the
motherboard. And make sure the CPU fan is plugged to the CPU fan
connector.
12
C. Connect the CPU cooler power connector to the CPU_FAN connector.
H87H3-TI USER MANUAL
2-4-3. Installing Memory Modules
•This motherboard accommodates two memory modules. It can support
two 204-pin DDR3 1600/1333 MHz.
•Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until
you are ready to install it on the motherboard. Handle the modules only
by their edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always wear
a grounding strap when you handle the modules.
•You must install at least one module in any of the two slots. Total memory
capacity is 16 GB.
•Refer to the following to install the memory modules.
Install the DIMM module into the slot and press it firmly down until it fits
in place. Check that the cutouts on the DIMM module edge connector
match the notches in the DIMM slot.

2-4-4. 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.
PCIE1~2 SlotsThe mini PCIe1 (full-card) supports SATA signal, USB signal and
Follow these instructions to install a mSATA card or TV tuner card:
1Insert a Mini SATA (mSATA) card or TV tuner card into the PCIE1 Slot.
2Lower the handle and tighten the screws.
PCIe signal for extending usage of mSATA card and TV tuner card,
and mini PCIe2 (half-card) supports extension cards with PCIe
signal and USB signal.
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.

H87H3-TI USER MANUAL
Follow these instructions to install a wireless card:
1Remove a blanking plate from the system case, and insert the wireless
card into the PCIE2 slot rightwards, then tighten the screw (Please refer
to Picture 1).
2Press the metal connector of the cable into the connector on the wireless
card. Ensure that the metal connector is correctly seated (Please refer to
Picture 2).
3Make the other end of the cable (with a gold screw) through the upper hole
of the bracket, and tighten the antenna on to the gold screw after
installing a metal gasket on the screw (Please refer to Picture 3).

1. SATA1~2: Serial ATA III connectors
SATA1~2 connectors are used to support the Serial ATA 6Gb/s device. Simpler disk
drive cabling and easier PC assembly. It eliminates limitations of the current
Parallel ATA interface. But maintains register compatibility and software
compatibility with Parallel ATA.
1. You can connect the large end of the cable to the LED Panel, and connect
the other small end to the slot on the motherboard.
2.Due to the chipset limitation, using dual displays LVDS(AIO) + VGA or
LVDS(AIO) + HDMI will cause the problem that you may not enter BIOS setup
or have the display problem.
