Hardware Setup |
|
This chapter provides you with the information about hardware setup procedures. While doing the installation, be careful in holding the components and follow the installation procedures. For some components, if you install in the wrong orientation, the components will not work properly.
Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. Static electricity may damage the components.

Central Processing Unit: CPU
The mainboard supports Intel® Pentium® 4 processor in the 478 pin package. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called PGA478 for easy CPU installation. 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 find the heat sink and cooling fan, contact your dealer to purchase and install them before turning on the computer.
CPU Installation Procedures
1.Pull the lever sideways away from the socket. Then, raise the lever up to a 90-degree angle.
2.Look for the gold arrow. The gold arrow should point towards the lever pivot. The CPU will only fit in the correct orientation.
3.Hold the CPU down firmly, and then close the lever to complete the installation.

Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system, always make sure the cooling fan can work properly to
WARNING! protect the CPU from overheating.

Hardware Setup
Installing the CPU Fan
As processor technology pushes to faster speeds and higher performance, thermal management becomes increasingly important. To dissipate heat, you need to attach the CPU cooling fan and heatsink on top of the CPU. Follow the instructions below to install the Heatsink/Fan:
1.Locate the CPU and its retention mechanism on the motherboard.
retention mechanism
2.Position the heatsink onto the retention mechanism.
3.Mount the fan on top of the heatsink. Press down the fan until its four clips get wedged in the holes of the retention mechanism.
4.Press the two levers down to fasten the fan. Each lever can be pressed down in only ONE direction.

Overclocking
This motherboard is designed to support overclocking.
However, please make sure your components are able to WARNING! 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 inadequate operation or beyond product specifications.

Hardware Setup
Memory
The mainboard provides 2 slots for 184-pin, 2.5V unbuffered DDR DIMM with 4 memory banks. You can install PC1600/PC2100 DDR/PC2700 SDRAM modules on the DDR DIMM slots (DDR 1~2). To operate properly, at least one DIMM module must be installed.
DDR DIMM Slots
Introduction to DDR SDRAM
DDR (Double Data Rate) SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM, but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle. It uses 2.5 volts as opposed to 3.3 volts used in SDR SDRAM, and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than 168-pin DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM. Three types of DDR SDRAM are available at the time of writing: PC1600, PC2100 and PC2700.
The following table shows the clock and peak bandwidth of each type of DDR SDRAM module:

DDR Module Combination
You can install either single-sided or double-sided 184-pin DDR DIMM modules into DDR DIMM slots to meet your needs. Different from the SDR DIMM, the DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module. The number of pins on either side of the breaks are different. The module will only fit in the right orientation.
You can install memory modules in any combination as follows:

Hardware Setup
Power Supply
The mainboard supports ATX power supply for the power system. Before inserting the power supply connector, always make sure that all components are installed properly to ensure that no damage will be caused.
ATX 20-Pin Power Connector: CONN1
This connector allows you to connect to an ATX power supply. To connect to the ATX power supply, make sure the plugs of the power supply is inserted in the proper orientation and the pins are aligned. Then push down the power supply firmly into the connector. The power connector supports instant power on function which means that system will boot up immediately when the power supply connector is inserted on the board.
ATX 12V Power Connector: JPW1
This 12V power connector is used to provide power to the CPU.
