Chapter 2: Board Installation

You are now ready to install your motherboard. The mounting hole pattern of the
S7012 matches the SSI EEB specification. Before continuing with installation,
confirm that your chassis supports an SSI EEB motherboard.

How to install our products right… the first time

The first thing you should do is reading this user’s manual. It contains important
information that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some
precautions you should take when installing your motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the

antistatic bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and
then touch a safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power
supply case). For the safest conditions, TYAN recommends wearing a
static safety wrist strap.

(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the

board, or flex the board in any way.

(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors,

memory modules, and leads.

(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic

bag that the board was shipped in.

(5) Inspect the board for damage.

The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your
chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.

NOTE

DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED.

2.4 - Installing the Processor and Heat Sink

Your S7012 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel
TYAN website for latest processor support:

http://www.tyan.com

Processor Installation (LGA1366 Socket)

The processor should be installed carefully. Make sure you are wearing an antistatic
strap and handle the processor as little as possible. Please note that both
processors of the same type and frequency are required for optimal system
performance.

NOTE: TYAN is not liable for damage as a result of operating an unsupported
configuration.

Follow these instructions to install your processor.

®

. Check the

The diagram is provided as a visual guide to help you install the socket processor
and may not be an exact representation of the processor you have.

Step 1: Take off the CPU protection cap.
Step 2: Pull the CPU lever up to unlock the CPU socket (A). Then open the

socket in the direction as shown (B).

Step 3: Place the CPU on the CPU socket, ensuring that pin 1 is located in the

right direction.

20

http://www.tyan.com

Step 4: Close the CPU socket cover (A) and press the CPU socket lever down to

secure the CPU (B).

Take care when installing the processor as it has very fragile
connector pins below the processor that can bend and break
if inserted improperly.

Heat Sink Installation

After installing the processor, you should proceed to install the heat sink. The CPU
heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to operate at
maximum performance for as long as you own them. The overheated processor is
dangerous to the motherboard.

For the safest method of installation and information on choosing the appropriate
heat sink, using heat sinks validated by Intel

®

.

Please refer to Intel’s website at www.Intel.com

The following diagram illustrates how to install heat sink onto the CPU of S7012.

Place the heat sink on top of the CPU
and secure it to the motherboard using
four screws clockwise.

21

http://www.tyan.com

CPU VRD/IOH Heat Dispersion Notice

Install FAN INTO ChASSIS TO LET AIR FLOW IN!!!

- To ensure that the board runs efficiently and does not overheat, make sure there
is air flow around the CPU VRD/IOH (as shown) to help disperse the heat
generated around the area.

22

http://www.tyan.com

2.5 - Thermal Interface Material

Note:

Always check with the manufacturer of the heat sink &
processor to ensure the Thermal Interface material is
compatible with the processor & meets the
manufacturer’s warranty requirements.

There are two types of
thermal interface materials
designed for use with the
processors.

The most common material
comes as a small pad
attached to the heat sink at
the time of purchase. There
should be a protective cover
over the material. Take care
not to touch this material.
Simply remove the protective
cover and place the heat
sink on the processor.

The second type of interface
material is usually packaged
separately. It is commonly
referred to as ‘thermal
compound’. Simply apply a
thin layer on to the CPU lid
(applying too much will
actually reduce the cooling).

23

http://www.tyan.com

2.6 - Finishing Installing the Heat Sink

After you have finished installing the heat sink onto the processor and socket,
attach the end wire of the fan (which should already be attached to the heat
sink) to the motherboard. The following diagram illustrates how to connect
fans onto the motherboard.

Once you have finished installing all the fans you can connect your drives (hard
drives, CD-ROM drives, etc.) to your motherboard.

24

http://www.tyan.com

2.7 - Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis

Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary
motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in
color. Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you are
unsure of stud placement, simply lay the motherboard inside the chassis and align
the screw holes of the motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any
studs missing, you will know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be
securely installed.

Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are
usable, TYAN recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the
motherboard more securely in place.

Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and
how they should be installed.

25

http://www.tyan.com

2.8 - Installing the Memory

Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with
the motherboard and processor. Check the TYAN Web site at: www.tyan.com
for details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.

The following diagram shows common types of DDR3 memory modules.

Key points to note before installing memory:

• Automatic memory bus frequency setting based on memory configuration

and memory SPD information (to be adjusted by BIOS)

• Supports un-buffered ECC/Non-ECC modules

• Supports ECC Registered DDR3-800/1066/1333 memory modules

• All memory must be of the same type and density

The following tables outline the suggested rules for populating memory.
