WARNING!
Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer.
1.Turn off your computer and unplug power supply.
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.Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system.
The card contains sensitive electric components, which can be easilydamaged bystatic electricity, so the card should be left in its original packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done ona grounded anti-static mat. Theoperator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the card carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may cause damage to your card. Be sure there are no shippingand handling damages on the card before proceeding.
MDO NOT APPLY POWER TO YOUR SYSTEM IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED ON THE CARD.
MIn order toensure your graphics cardworking correctly, please useofficial Gigabyte BIOS only. Use none official gigabyte BIOSmight cause problem on the graphics card.
