AMD K8 Processor Family
Cooling Solutions
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance with increasing operation clock, thermal management becomes increasingly crucial while building computer systems. Maintaining the proper computing environment without thermal increasing is the key to reliable, stable, and 24 hours system operation. The overall goal is keeping the processor below its specified maximum case temperature. Heatsinks induce improved processor heat dissipation through increasing surface area and concentrated airflow from attached active cooling fans. In addition, interface materials allow effective transfers of heat from the processor to the heatsink. For optimum heat transfer, AMD recommends the use of thermal grease and mounting clips to attach the heatsink to the processor.
Please refer to the website below for collection of heatsinks evaluated and recommended for Socket­754 processors by AMD. In addition, this collection is not intended to be a comprehensive listing of all heatsinks that support Socket-754 processors.

1-1.1 Special Features of motherboard
Bi-turbo---( Hardware-based Dynamic Over-clocking Technology )
The Bi-turbo Technology offers you dual over-clocking modes. On top of the software based BIOS setting “Current CPU Clock” for over-clocking, the onboard hardware circuitry will monitor the change of CPU current to activate 2nd level over-clocking at preset workload level automatically. The Bi-turbo technology offers the versatility of both hardware-based intelligent automatic mode and power-manual mode for extra computing performance. Without complex settings from system BIOS, Bi-turbo provides the seeing promoted system performance by simple and intuitional BIOS setting. Bi-turbo technology offers more flexible ways to choose the over-clocking range the of over-clocking activation by actually CPU hardware loading you define.
CPU Thermal Throttling Technology---( The CPU Overheat Protection Technology)
To prevent the increasing heat from damage of CPU or accidental shutdown while at high workload, the CPU Thermal Throttling Technology will force CPU to enter idle mode from
87.5% to 12.5% according to preset CPU operating temperature in BIOS (from 20 to 80℃). When the system senses the CPU operating temperature reaching the preset value, the CPU
operating bandwidth will be decreased to the preset percentage to cool down the processor. When at throttling mode the beeper sound can be optionally selected to indicate it is in working.
Debug Port (Option)--- ( The Professional Hardware Diagnosis System )
Being bugged of abnormal system failure through the tossed and turned nights no more, the embedded Hardware Debug Port offers you the real-time visual system healthy for the demanding usage of computing. No more bugging by unknown system failure and no more time wasted in the first moment of 24-hour nonstop ping business computing, the embedded Debug Port will turn you into a well training hardware professional with the seeing system situation. (The Post Code please refer Appendix)
CPU Smart Fan---( The Noise Management System )
It’s never been a good idea to gain the performance of your system by sacrificing its acoustics. CPU Smart Fan Noise Management System is the answer to control the noise level needed for now-a-day’s high performance computing system. The system will automatically increase the fan speed when CPU operating loading is high, after the CPU is in normal operating condition, the system will low down the fan speed for the silent operating environment. The system can provide the much longer life cycle for both CPU and the system fans for game use and business requirements.
7-Shift--- ( Shift to Higher Performance )
The CPU voltage can be adjusted up to 7 steps from 1.875 Volt to 2.xxx Volt at every 0.05 Volt per step for the precisely over-clocking of extra demanding computing performance.

2-3-2 About AMD Athlon64 754-pin CPU
This motherboard provides a 754-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket, referred to as the mPGA754 socket supports AMD Athlon64 processor in the 754 Pin package utilizes Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array package technology.
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.

2-6-1 Connectors
(1) Power Connector (24-pin block) : ATXPWR
ATX Power Supply connector. This is a new defined 24-pins connector that usually
comes with ATX case. The ATX Power Supply allows to use soft power on momentary switch that connect from the front panel switch to 2-pins Power On jumper pole on the motherboard. When the power switch on the back of the ATX power supply turned on, the full power will not come into the system board until the front panel switch is momentarily pressed. Press this switch again will turn off the power to the system board.
** We recommend that you use an ATX 12V Specification 2.0-compliant power supply
unit (PSU) with a minimum of 350W power rating. This type has 24-pin and 4-pin power plugs.
** If you intend to use a PSU with 20-pin and 4-pin power plugs, make sure that the 20-pin
power plug can provide at least 15A on +12V and the power supply unit has a minimum power rating of 350W. The system may become unstable or may not boot up if the power is inadequate.

Chapter 3
Introducing BIOS
The BIOS is a program located on a Flash Memory on the motherboard. This program is a bridge between motherboard and operating system. When you start the computer, the BIOS program gain control. The BIOS first operates an auto-diagnostic test called POST (power on self test) for all the necessary hardware, it detects the entire hardware device and configures the parameters of the hardware synchronization. Only when these tasks are completed done it gives up control of the computer to operating system (OS). Since the BIOS is the only channel for hardware and software to communicate, it is the key factor for system stability, and in ensuring that your system performance as its best.
In the BIOS Setup main menu of Figure 3-1, you can see several options. We will explain these options step by step in the following pages of this chapter, but let us first see a short description of the function keys you may use here:
Press <Esc> to quit the BIOS Setup.
Press
↑↓←→
(up, down, left, right) to choose, in the main menu, the option you want to
confirm or to modify.
Press <F10> when you have completed the setup of BIOS parameters to save these parameters and to exit the BIOS Setup menu.
Press Page Up/Page Down or +/– keys when you want to modify the BIOS parameters for the active option.
3-1 Entering Setup
Power on the computer and by pressing <Del> immediately allows you to enter Setup. If the message disappears before your respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the “RESET” button on the system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error message will be displayed and you will again be asked to
Press <F1> to continue, <Ctrl-Alt-Esc> or <Del> to enter Setup

ENTER PASSWORD:
Type the password, up to eight characters in length, and press <Enter>. The password typed now will clear any previously entered password from CMOS memory. You will be asked to confirm the password. Type the password again and press <Enter>. You may also press <Esc> to abort the selection and not enter a password. To disable a password, just press <Enter> when you are prompted to enter the password. A message will confirm that the password will be disabled. Once the password is disabled, the system will boot and you can enter Setup freely.
PASSWORD DISABLED.
When a password has been enabled, you will be prompted to enter it every time you try to enter Setup. This prevents an unauthorized person from changing any part of your system configuration. Additionally, when a password is enabled, you can also require the BIOS to request a password every time your system is rebooted. This would prevent unauthorized use of your computer. You determine when the password is required within the BIOS Features Setup Menu and its Security option. If the Security option is set to “System”, the password will be required both at boot and at entry to Setup. If set to “Setup”, prompting only occurs when trying to enter Setup.
