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.

Hardware Setup

CPU (Central Processing Unit)

This mainboard supports the latest AMD® Opteron processor in 1207-pin package.
When you are installing the CPU, make sure that you install the cooler to
prevent the CPU from overheating. If you do not have the CPU cooler, contact
your dealer to purchase and install it before turning on the computer.

For the latest information about CPU, please visit http://www.msi.com.tw/program/
products/server/svr/pro_svr_qvl.php.

Important

1. Overheating will seriously damage the CPU and system. Always make
sure the cooling fan can work properly to protect the CPU from overheating.

2. Make sure that you apply an even layer of heat sink paste (or thermal tape)
between the CPU and the heatsink to enhance heat dissipation.

3. While replacing the CPU, always turn off the power supply or unplug the
power supply’s power cord from the grounded outlet first to ensure the
safety of CPU.

Precautions for thermal issues

To virtually eliminate thermal issues, users are advised to take proper precautions.

1. Users are recommended to use AVC Z7UB408*** series cooler when installing
120W AMD Opteron CPU.

2. Users are recommended to use AVC Z8UB009*** series cooler when installing
95W AMD Opteron CPU.

3. When choosing the system chassis, make sure that its system fan is located
adjacent to the MCP55 Pro chipset. This way, the system fan will contribute a lot
to the heat dissipation of the chipset and PCI interface cards.

4. The heat of the CPUs should be directed to the CSP heatsinks for better cooling
effect. Follow the recommended inlet air direction (as indicated below by red
arrows) for correct orientation of your CPU coolers.

Socket 1207 CPU & Cooler Installation

1. Locate the first CPU socket. (The CPU has a plastic cap on it to protect the contact
from damage. Before installing the CPU, always cover it to protect the socket
pins.)

2. Remove the plastic cap from the load plate. The pins of the socket reveal.

3. Raise the load lever up to its full extent.

4. Open the load plate.

5. After confirming the CPU direction (indicated below with red circles) for correct
mating, put down the CPU in the socket housing frame. Be sure to grasp on the
edge of the CPU base. Note that the alignment keys are matched.

6. Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well into the socket. If not, take out the CPU
with pure vertical motion and reinstall.

7. Cover the load plate onto the package.

8. Press down the load lever lightly onto the load plate and then secure the lever
with the hook under the retention tab.

9. Place the cooler set on top of the reten­tion mechanism. Secure the metal clips
on the cooler set to the hooks on the
retention mechanism.

10.Connect the cooler power cord to the
onboard CPU fan power connector.

Hardware Setup

Memory Frequency vs. Core Multiplier

The DDR2 DIMM operates different frequency when using different CPU. For example,
when using 2.4GHz CPU the DDR2 667MHz DIMM will operate at 600MHz.

Installing DDR2 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.

v NOTE: You can barely see the golden finger if the memory module is

properly inserted in the DIMM slot.

3. The plastic clip at each side of the DIMM slot will automatically close.
