Central Processing Unit: CPU
1
The mainboard supports Intel® processor. The mainboard uses a CPU socket called
Socket 775 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 & Cooler Installation Procedures for Socket 775
1. The CPU socket has a plastic cap on it to protect the contact from
damage. Before you have installed the CPU, always cover it to protect the socket pin.
2. Remove the cap from lever hinge side.
3. The pins of socket reveal.
4. Open the load lever.
5. Lift the load lever up and open the load plate.
6. After confirming the CPU direction 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.
7. Visually inspect if the CPU is seated well into the socket. If not, take
out the CPU with pure vertical motion and reinstall.
8. Cover the load plate onto the package.
9. Press down the load lever lightly onto the load plate, and then
secure the lever with the hook under retention tab.
10.Align the holes on the mainboard with the cooler. Push down the
cooler until its four clips get wedged into the holes of the mainboard.
11.Press the four hooks down to fasten the cooler. Then rotate the
locking switch (refer to the correct direction marked on it) to lock the
hooks.
12.Turn over the mainboard to confirm that the clip-ends
are correctly inserted.
alignment key
Important
1. Read the CPU status in BIOS.
2. Whenever CPU is not installed, always protect your CPU socket pin with the
plastic cap covered to avoid damaging.
3. 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.

English
- DDR2 memory modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDR2 stan
dard is not backwards compatible. You should always install DDR2 memory
modules in the DDR2 DIMM slots.
- In Dual-Channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of the same
type and density in different channel DIMM slots.
- To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules into the
DIMM1 first.

Installing Memory Modules
You can find the notch on the memory modules and the volt on the DIMM slots whether
DDR or DDR2. Follow the procedures below to install the memory module properly.
1.The memory modules 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.
Important
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.

Fan Power Connectors
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.
