Central Processing Unit: CPU
Correct CPU
The mainboard supports AMD® processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called
Socket AM2/AM2+ for easy CPU installation. 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://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?
func=cpuform
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.
Replaceing the CPU
While replacing the CPU, always turn off the ATX power supply or unplug the
power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet first 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 specifications is not
recommended. We do not guarantee the damages or risks caused by inad-
equate operation or beyond product specifications.
CPU Installation Procedures for Socket AM2/ AM2+
1.Please turn off the power and unplug the power cord before installing the CPU.
2.Pull the lever sideways away from the socket. Make sure to
raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.
3.Look for the gold arrow of the CPU. The gold arrow should
Gold arrow
point as shown in the picture. The CPU can only fit in the
correct orientation.
4.If the CPU is correctly installed, the pins should be completely embedded into the socket and can not be seen. Please note that any
violation of the correct installation procedures may cause permanent damages to
your mainboard.
5.Press the CPU down firmly into the socket and close the lever. As the CPU is likely to
move while the lever is being closed, always close the lever with your fingers pressing tightly on top of the CPU to make sure the CPU is properly and completely
embedded into the socket.

MS-7511 Mainboard
Installing CPU Cooler Set
When you are installing the CPU, make sure the CPU has a heat sink and a cooling
fan attached on the top to prevent overheating. If you do not have the CPU cooler,
consult your dealer before turning on the computer.
Important
Mainboard photos shown in this section are for demonstration of the CPU/ cooler
installation only. The appearance of your mainboard may vary depending on the
model you purchase.
1.Position the cooling set onto the retention mechanism. Hook one end of the clip to
hook first.
2.Then press down the other end of the clip to fasten the cooling set on the top of the
retention mechanism. Locate the Fix Lever and lift up it .
3.Fasten down the lever.
4.Attach the CPU Fan cable to the CPU fan connector on the mainboard.

Installing memory Modules
1. The memory module has only one notch on the center and will only fit in the right
orientation.
2. Insert the memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it in until the
golden finger on the memory module is deeply inserted in the DIMM slot. The plastic
clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close when the memory module
is properly seated.
Important
You can barely see the golden finger if the memory module is properly inserted in
the DIMM slot.
3. Manually check if the memory module has been locked in place by the DIMM slot
clips at the sides.

Important
-DDR2 modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDR2 standard is
not backwards compatible. You should always install DDR2 memory modules in the DDR2 DIMMs and DDR memory modules in the DDR DIMMs.
-In dual-channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the
same type and density in differentchannel DDR DIMMs.
-To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules
into the DIMM1 first.

Fan Power Connectors: CPUFAN1, SYSFAN1, SYSFAN2
The fan power connectors support system cooling fan with +12V. The CPU FAN supports
Smart FAN function. When connect the wire to the connectors, always take note that the
red wire is the positive and should be connected to the +12V, the black wire is Ground
and should be connected to GND. If the mainboard has a System Hardware Monitor
chipset on-board, you must use a specially designed fan with speed sensor to take
advantage of the fan control.

* An error message appears on the screen during the system booting up, and requests
you to run BIOS SETUP.
* You want to change the default settings for customized features.
Important
