Thermal Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal
management becomes increasingly crucial when building computer systems. Maintaining
the proper thermal environment is key to reliable, long-term system operation. The
overall goal in providing the proper thermal environment is keeping the processor
below its specified maximum case temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor
heat dissipation through increased surface area and concentrated airflow from attached
fans. In addition, interface materials allow effective transfers of heat from the
processor to the heatsink. For optimum heat transfer, Intel recommends the use of
thermal grease and mounting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
When selecting a thermal solution for your system, please refer to the website below
for collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended by Intel for use with Intel
processors.

2-3-2 Setting CPU Bus Clock Jumper
Setting the CPU Front Side Bus Frequency
The motherboard uses jumper JMP1 for the front side bus frequency setting as shown
from the table below:
CPU (MHz) 1-2 3-4 5-6 7-8
AUTO ON ON OFF OFF * Default
66 MHz OFF OFF ON ON
100 MHz OFF OFF OFF ON
133 MHz OFF OFF OFF OFF

Example: Using a Pentium III 866 CPU with front side bus frequency of 133MHz and
PC-133 SDRAM module, the setting of JPM1 will be all OFF. Will form CPU
BUS CLOCK be 133MHz.
For experience user looking for over clocking, please refer to sec 2-3-4
2-3-3 Install CPU
This motherboard provides a ZIF socket 370. The CPU that comes with the
motherboard should have a cooling FAN attached to prevent overheating. If this is not the
case, then purchase a correct cooling FAN before you turn on your system.
WARNING!
Be sure that there is sufficient air circulation across the processor’s
heatsink and CPU cooling FAN is working correctly, otherwise it
may cause the processor and motherboard overheat and damage, you
may install an auxiliary cooling FAN, if necessary.
To install a CPU, first turn off your system and remove its cover. Locate the ZIF
socket and open it by first pulling the level sideways away from the socket then
upward to a 90-degree angle. Insert the CPU with the correct orientation as shown
below. The notched corner should point toward the end of the level. Because the CPU
has a corner pin for two of the four corners, the CPU will only fit in the orientation as
shown.

When you put the CPU into the ZIF socket. No forces require to insert of the CPU,
then press the level to locate position slightly without any extra force.

2-3-4 Over clock Running
WARNING!
This section is for experienced motherboard installer only. Over
clocking can result in system instability or even shortening life of the
processor.
After setting the Jumper JMP1 you can choose over clock running by BIOS CMOS
SETUP UTILITY. When you entered CMOS SETUP UTILITY, choose “Miscellaneous
Control” you will see the screen as below then.
You can choose the situation you want to try.

This motherboard provides two 168-pin DUAL INLINE MEMORY MODULES
(DIMM) sites for memory expansion available from minimum memory size over
32MB to maximum memory size of 1GB SDRAM.

Generally, installing SDRAM modules to your motherboard is very easy, you can refer
to figure 2-4 to see what a 168-Pin PC100 & PC133 SDRAM module looks like.

DI MM1 (BANK0+ BANK1 )
Figure 2-4
NOTE!
When you install DIMM module fully into the DIMM socket the eject tab should be
locked into the DIMM module very firmly and fit into its indention on both sides.
WARNING!
If the SDRAM CLOCK is set at 133MHz, you must use only PC133compliant DIMMs. When this motherboard operate at 133Mhz, most
system will not even boot if non-compliant SDRAM modules are used
because of the strict timing issues, if your DIMM are not PC133compliant, set the SDRAM clock to 100MHz to ensure system’s
stability.
2-5 Expansion Cards
WARNING!
2-5-1 Procedure For Expansion Card Installation
Turn off your power when adding or removing expansion cards or
other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage
to both your motherboard and expansion cards.
1. Read the documentation for your expansion card and make any necessary hardware
or software setting for your expansion card such as jumpers.
2. Remove your computer’s cover and the bracket plate on the slot you intend to use.
3. Align the card’s connectors and press firmly.
4. Secure the card on the slot with the screen you remove above.
5. Replace the computer system’s cover.
6. Set up the BIOS if necessary.
7. Install the necessary software driver for your expansion card.
