English

Screw holes

Refer above picture to install stando󰘯s in the appropriate locations on chassis and then screw through the mainboard screw holes into the stando󰘯s.

Important

To prevent damage to the mainboard, any contact between the mainboard circuit and

CPU (Central Processing Unit)

When you are installing the CPU, make sure to install the cooler to prevent overheating. If you do not have the CPU cooler, consult your dealer before turning on the computer.

For the latest information about CPU, please visit http://www.msi.com/index. php?func=cpuform2

Important

Overheating Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make sure the cooling

fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating. Make sure that you apply an even layer of thermal paste (or thermal tape) between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.

Replacing the CPU While replacing the CPU, always turn o󰘯 the ATX power supply or unplug the power

supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet 󰘰rst to ensure the safety of CPU. Overclocking

This mainboard is designed to support overclocking. However, please make sure your components are able to tolerate such abnormal setting, while doing overclocking. Any attempt to operate beyond product speci󰘰cations is not recommended. We do not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inadequate operation or beyond product speci󰘰cations.

CPU & Cooler Installation

When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a cooler attached on the top to prevent overheating. Meanwhile, do not forget to apply some thermal paste on CPU before installing the heat sink/cooler fan for better heat dispersion.

Follow the steps below to install the CPU & cooler correctly. Wrong installation will cause the damage of your CPU & mainboard.
