Hardware Installation

1-3 Installing the CPU

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the CPU:

Make sure that the motherboard supports the CPU.

Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the CPU to prevent hardware damage.

Locate the pin one of the CPU. The CPU cannot be inserted if oriented incorrectly. (Or you may locate the notches on both sides of the CPU and alignment keys on the CPU socket.)

Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the CPU.

Do not turn on the computer if the CPU cooler is not installed, otherwise overheating and damage of the CPU may occur.

Set the CPU host frequency in accordance with the CPU specifications. It is not recommended that the system bus frequency be set beyond hardware specifications since it does not meet the standard requirements for the peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard specifications, please do so according to your hardware specifications including the CPU, graphics card, memory, hard drive, etc.

1-3-1 Installing the CPU

A. Locate the alignment keys on the motherboard CPU socket and the notches on the CPU.

Step 6:

Finally, secure lever A under its retention tab to complete the installation of the CPU.

1-4 Installing the Memory

Read the following guidelines before you begin to install the memory:

Make sure that the motherboard supports the memory. It is recommended that memory of the same capacity, brand, speed, and chips be used.

(Go to GIGABYTE's website for the latest supported memory speeds and memory modules.)

Always turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet before installing the memory to prevent hardware damage.

Memory modules have a foolproof design. A memory module can be installed in only one direction. If you are unable to insert the memory, switch the direction.

1-4-1 Four Channel Memory Configuration

This motherboard provides sixteen DDR3 memory sockets and supports Four Channel Technology. After the memory is installed, the BIOS will automatically detect the specifications and capacity of the memory.

Enabling Four Channel memory mode will be four times of the original memory bandwidth.

The four DDR3 memory sockets are divided into four channels each channel has two memory sockets as following:

Channel 1: DDR3_P0_A0/DDR3_P0_A1 (For pimary CPU); DDR3_P1_E0/DDR3_P1_E1 (For secondary CPU)

Channel 2: DDR3_P0_B0/DDR3_P0_B1 (For pimary CPU); DDR3_P1_F0/DDR3_P1_F1 (For secondary CPU)

Channel 3: DDR3_P0_C0/DDR3_P0_C1 (For pimary CPU); DDR3_P1_G0/ DDR3_P1_G1 (For secondary CPU)

Channel 4: DDR3_P0_D0/DDR3_P0_D1 (For pimary CPU); DDR3_P1_H0/DDR3_P1_H1 (For secondary CPU)

Read the following guidelines before connecting external devices:

First make sure your devices are compliant with the connectors you wish to connect.

Before installing the devices, be sure to turn off the devices and your computer. Unplug the power cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the devices.

After installing the device and before turning on the computer, make sure the device cable has

been securely attached to the connector on the motherboard.

1/2) SSI_2X9P1/SSI_2X9P2 (2x9 12V Power Connectors)

With the use of the power connector, the power supply can supply enough stable power to all the components on the motherboard. Before connecting the power connector, first make sure the power supply is turned off and all devices are properly installed. The power connector possesses a foolproof design. Connect the power supply cable to the power connector in the correct orientation. The 12V power connector mainly supplies power to the CPU. If the 12V power connector is not connected, the computer will not start.

To meet expansion requirements, it is recommended that a power supply that can with stand high power consumption be used (1000W / 12V standby 2A or greater). If a power supply is used that does not provide the required power, the result can lead to an unstable or unbootable system.

• A RAID 0 or RAID 1 configuration requires at least two hard drives. If more than two hard drives are configured, the total number of hard drives must be an even number.

• A RAID 10 configuration requires four hard drives.

(Note) When a RAID configuration is built across the SATA 6Gb/s channels, the system performance of the RAID configuration may vary depends on the devices are connected.

14)BAT1 (Battery)

The battery provides power to keep the values (such as BIOS configurations, date, and time information)

in the CMOS when the computer is turned off. Replace the battery when the battery voltage drops to a low level, or the CMOS values may not be accurate or may be lost.

Always turn off your computer and unplug the power cord before replacing the battery.

Replace the battery with an equivalent one. Danger of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect model.

Contact the place of purchase or local dealer if you are not able to replace the battery by yourself or uncertain about the battery model.

When installing the battery, note the orientation of the positive side (+) and the negative side (-) of the battery (the positive side should face up).

Used batteries must be handled in accordance with local environmental regulations.
