1. Attach the CPU and heatsink using silica gel to ensure full contact.
2. It is suggested to select high-quality, certified fans in order to avoid
damage to the motherboard and CPU due to high temperature.
3. Never turn on the machine if the CPU fan is not properly installed.
4. Ensure that the DC power supply is turned off before inserting or
removing expansion cards or other peripherals, especially when
you insert or remove a memory module. Failure to switch off the DC
power supply may result in serious damage to your system or
memory module.
Warning:
We cannot guarantee that your system will operate normally while
over-clocked. Normal operation depends on the over-clock capacity of
your device.

Technology.
1. Unlock the socket by pressing the le­ver sideways, then lift it up to a 90
o
angle.
2. Align the cut edge to the gap in the
base of the socket. Carefully insert
the CPU into the socket until it fits in
place.
When the CPU is in place, press it firmly on the socket while you push down the socket lever to secure the CPU. The lever clicks on the side tab indicates that it is locked.
Gap in the base
Installation of CPU
Follow these steps to install the CPU.
Push down the socket
lever to secure the CPU.

Chapter 2 Installation Instructions
2.If required, apply a light coating of
silica gel to the top of the CPU.
NOTE: The CPU heatsink may have
a pre-applied thermal compound. In
that case, the silica gel is not required.
4.Connect the fan’s power cable to the appropriate 3-pin terminal
on the motherboard.
1. Locate the CPU retention mecha-
nism base (surrounds the CPU
socket).
3. Attach the fan to the base.
Installation of CPU Fan
New technology allows processors to run at higher and higher frequencies. To avoid problems arising from high-speed operation, for example, overheating, you need to install the proper fan. The following procedure is provided for reference only, please refer to your CPU fan user guide for the actual procedure.
Warning:
Excessive temperature will severely damage the CPU and system. Therefore, make sure that the cooling fan works nor­mally at all times in order to prevent overheating and damaging to the CPU.

Chapter 2 Installation Instructions
Memory
This motherboard includes two 184-pin slots with 266/333/400 MHz Single
Channel DDR DRAM interface, You must install at least one memory module to
ensure normal operation. If you install two modules, they must be the same
speed. Mixing memory modules from different manufactures are not
recommended.
Installation of DDR Memory
1. There is only one gap in the middle of the DIMM slot, and the memory module
can be fixed in one direction only.
2. Align the memory module to the DIMM slot, and insert the module
vertically into the DIMM slot.
3. The plastic clips at both sides of the DIMM slot will lock automatically.
Note:
Be sure to unplug the AC power supply before adding or re-
moving expansion cards or other system peripherals, espe-
cially the memory devices, otherwise your motherboard or the
system memory might be seriously damaged.
