Chapter 2: Board Installation

Installation

You are now ready to install your motherboard. The mounting hole pattern of the Tiger
i7501R S2735 matches the ATX specification. Before continuing with installation, confirm
that your chassis supports a standard ATX motherboard.

How to install our products right…. the first time!

The first thing you should do is read this user’s manual. It contains important information
that will make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some precautions you
should take when installing your motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic

bag. Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a
safely grounded object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the
safest conditions, Tyan recommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.

(2) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the board, or

flex the board in any way.

(3) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, memory

modules, and leads.

(4) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic bag

that the board was shipped in.

(5) Inspect the board for damage.

The following pages include details on how to install your motherboard into your chassis,
as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives and cables.

NOTE DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED

J31 is an LED INPUT. The idea is to
run a wire from the activity LED output
header of any plug-in HD controller
card (e.g. a RAID card) to the
motherboard, so that the card's LED
can be "combined " with the IDE and
SCSI activity indicators on the
motherboard and then driven to the
J39 HD LED output. In other words,
when a card's LED lights up, so will
the front-panel hard-disk activity
indicator. This is useful for chassis that
have only a single LED to indicate HD
activity from multiple controller
sources. (Pin 1 = negative terminal of
the add-on card's LED header, Pin 2 =
do not connect.)

2.21 – Mounting the Motherboard

Before installing your motherboard, make sure your chassis has the necessary
motherboard support studs installed. These studs are usually metal and are gold in color.
Usually, the chassis manufacturer will pre-install the support studs. If you’re unsure of
stud placement, simply lay the motherboard inside the chassis and align the screw holes
of the motherboard to the studs inside the case. If there are any studs missing, you will
know right away since the motherboard will not be able to be securely installed.

Some chassis’ include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are
usable, Tyan recommends using metal studs with screws that will fasten the motherboard
more securely in place.

Below is a chart detailing what the most common motherboard studs look like and how
they should be installed.

TIP: Use metal studs if possible, as they hold the motherboard into place more securely
than plastic standoffs.

2.22 – Installing the Memory

Before attempting to install any memory, make sure that the memory you have is
compatible with the motherboard as well as the processor. Critically important is whether
you’re using the recommended memory for the current board you have. For this
information, please check Tyan’s web site at: www.tyan.com

The following diagram shows the types of RAM modules you may encounter depending
on your board:

21

http://www.TYAN.com

Memory Installation Procedure

The Tiger i7501R S2735 requires that memory modules be installed in pairs. Please
refer to the next page for exact details on installing memory modules correctly.

When installing memory modules, make sure the modules align properly with the memory
socket. There should be keys (small indents) on your memory modules that fit according
to the keys in the memory socket. DDR modules and sockets have only one key, which is
slightly near the center of the module/socket. The method of installing memory modules is
detailed in the following diagrams.

Once the memory modules are firmly seated in the socket, two clamps on either side will
close and secure the module into the socket. Sometimes you may need to close the
clamps manually.

To remove the memory module, simply push the clamps outwards until the memory
module pops up. Then simply remove the module.

TIP: When installing memory, a module may require a considerable amount of force to
seat properly, although this is very rare. To avoid bending and damaging your
motherboard, place it on its anti-static bag and onto a flat surface, and then proceed with
memory installation.

NOTE

YOU MUST unplug the power connector to the motherboard before

performing system hardware changes, to avoid damaging the board or
expansion device.

22

http://www.TYAN.com

Memory Pair Installation

When installing DIMM modules, you must install the first two memory modules in
DIMMA_DIMM1 and DIMMB_DIMM1.
Both modules must be the same in both size and density. Modules must also use the
same chip configuration, as in each module that is installed must physically have the
same number of memory chips on them.
All memory sockets must be populated by the same memory type, either x4 modules or
x8 you cannot mix and match x4 and x8 modules together.

Points to remember:

• At least two Registered ECC DDR SDRAM modules must be installed for the

system to turn on and POST (Power On Self Test). Single Channel memory
support is not currently available. Please check Tyan’s website for updates on
this topic.

• When installing modules, install them in this order: DIMMA_DIMM1,

DIMMB_DIMM1, DIMMA_DIMM2, DIMMB_DIMM2, etc.

• 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, and 2GB Registered ECC PC2100/PC1600

DDR SDRAM memory modules are supported in x4 or x8 configuration.

• The Tiger i7501R S2735 supports up to 12GB of memory with 2GB (X4)

registered DDR modules.

• Use ONLY x8 OR x4 type memory modules. Mixing memory types may affect

stability.

23

http://www.TYAN.com

• RAM chips are organized as x4 bits or x8 bits. On a memory module you’re just

lining all these chips up in parallel so you have a 64bit wide data bus. All
512MB modules are made using 16 pieces of either 64Mbit x4, or 32Mbit x8. If
you use sixteen x8 chips you would get a 128bit data bus, so it has to be split
into two separate banks. Each with 64bit bus. That’s why 512MB modules
based on x8 chips are dual bank. To build 256MB modules you can either use
sixteen 32Mx4 chips, or eight 32Mx8 chips. But you can’t build a 256MB
module using 64Mx4 chips. To build 1GB modules you have to use thirty-two
64Mx4 chips. Two 64Mx4 chips are stacked on top of each other with a lead
frame in between. Stacking basically converts two 64Mx4 chips into one
128Mx4 chip or one 64Mx8 chip. Then you stick 16 stacks onto a PCB.
Stacking also saves real estate, so you can fit more chips onto a shorter PCB
and keep trace lengths in spec.

If you are still unsure whether you are using x4 or x8 memory you can research the
memory chip by the SDRAM part numbers, or go to http://www.google.com

and

search for jedec 21-c 4.20.4.

24

http://www.TYAN.com

2.23 – Installing the Processor and Heatsink

Your Tiger i7501R S2735 supports the latest processor technologies from Intel. Check the
following page on TYAN’s website for latest processor support:

http://www.Tyan.com

The following diagrams will detail how to install your processor(s):

The processors you choose to use may not look exactly like the one pictured above, nor
will the socket look exactly the same. The diagram is provided as a visual guide to help
you install socket processors.

1. Lift the lever on the socket until it is approximately 130

o

or as far back as

possible to the socket.

2. Align the processor with the socket. There are keys underneath the processor
just like on memory modules to ensure that they insert the correct way.

3. Seat the processor firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until the
processor sits flush with the socket.

4. Place the socket lever back down until it snaps into place.

5. Your processor is installed.

6. Repeat these steps for the second processor if you are using two processors.

NOTE: If using only one CPU, it must be installed in CPU1 socket.

Heatsink Installation

After you are done installing the processor(s), you should proceed to installing their
heatsinks. Heatsinks will ensure that the processors do not overheat and continue to
operate at maximum performance for as long as you own them. Overheated processors
may damage the motherboard.

Because there are many different types of heatsinks available from many different
manufacturers, a lot of them have their own method of installation. For the safest method
of installation and information on choosing the appropriate heatsink, please refer to Intel’s
website at http://www.intel.com.

25

http://www.TYAN.com

2.24 – Installing CPU Back-plates and retention modules

The following diagrams will illustrate how to install the included heatsink retention
modules and CPU back-plates. You should have: two back-plates and 9 screws. (Four
screws for each plate and one spare screw.)

NOTE: The back-plates must be installed prior to installing the motherboard into a chassis.
(Certain 1U chassis may not require the back-plates.)

1) Align the heatsink mounting bracket to the holes around the processor socket

2) Insert screws into bracket holes

26

http://www.TYAN.com

3) Screws should pass through bracket holes and through the motherboard.

4) Tighten screws into the CPU back-plates.

NOTE: The hexagonal nut MUST be on the viewable side of the CPU back­plate as shown below!

5) After installing the CPU, seat the heatsink between brackets on processor

6) Attach heatsink retaining arms by locking them in the hook as shown below.
