Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. T o protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer.

WARNING!

1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case.

3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other components.

4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system.

5. Ensure that the A TX power supply is switched of f before you plug in or remove the ATX power connector on the motherboard.

Installing the motherboard to the chassis…

If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don’t line up with the holes on the base and there are no slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful of your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard PCB surface, because the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don’t let the screw contact any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the board or cause board malfunctioning.

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation Process

2-1: Installing Processor and CPU Haet Sink

English

2-1-1: Installing CPU

Step 1 Raise the metal locking lever on the socket. Step 2 Remove the plastic covering on the CPU socket. Step 3 Insert the CPU with the correct orientation. The CPU only fits in one orientation.

Step 4 Once the CPU is properly placed, please replace the plastic covering and push the metal

Before installing the processor and cooling fan, adhere to the following cautions:

1. The processor will overheat without the heatsink and/or fan, resulting in permanent irreparable damage.

2. Never force the processor into the socket.

3. Apply thermal grease on the processor before placing cooling fan.

4. Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.

5. If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it will cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.

lever back into locked position.

Hardware Installation Process

Step 4. When the processor installation is completed, apply thermal grease to the processor(as

prior to installing the heatsink. AMD recommends using a high thermal conductivity grease for the thermal interface material rather than a phase change material. Phase change materials develop strong adhesive forces between the heatsink and processor.

Removing the heatsink under such conditions can cause the processor to be removed from the socket without moving the socket lever to the unlocked position and then damage the processor pins or socket contacts.

** We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat conduction between your CPU and heatsink. (The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the hardening of the thermal paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cooling fan, you might pull the processor out of the CPU socket alone with the cooling fan, and might damage the processor. T o avoid this from happening, we suggest you to either use thermal tape instead of thermal paste, orremove the cooling fan with extreme caution)

support frame mating with the backer plate standoffs as shown in Figure 5&6.

NOTE: We recommend you to buy the type of cooling fan which is shown in Figure 7. This type of cooling fan will provide the best performance for heat releasing.

GA-3CCWV-RH/GA-3CCWL-RH Motherboard

2-2: Install Memory Modules

English

The motherboard has 8 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM socket .The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can vary between sockets.

Before installing the processor and heatsink, adhere to the following warning: When DIMM LED is ON, do not install/remove DIMM from socket.

Channel A (Red)

Channel B (Yellow)

Channel A (Red)

Hardware Installation Process

Installation Step:

1. Unlock a DIMM socket by pressing the retaining clips outwards.

2. Aling a DIMM on the socket such that the notch on the DIMM exactly match the notches in the socket. Firmly insert the DIMMinto the socket until the retaining clips snap back in place.

3. The processor supports 64-bit mode and 128-bit mode configuration of the DIMMs. In 64 bit mode, only DIMM 0 and 2 can be populated. Possible combinations of DIMMs in 64 bit mode are listed in T able 1. In 128 bit mode, minimum of two DIMMs is required to create the 128 bit bus; therefore, DIMMs can only be populated in even numbered pairs in slot 0 & 1, and 2& 3. Each logical DIMM must be madeof two identical DIMMs having the same device size on each and the same DIMM size. Regardless of mode, DIMM must be populated in order starting at the farest slotfrom the processor. Table 2 & 3 shows the possible combination of DIMMs for 128 mode. Not all possbile combinations are listed in the tables.

4. Installed DIMMs must be the same speed and must all be registered. For a list of suuported memrory, please refer to the table of previous page.

5. Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the DIMM module.
