Chapter 2: Board Installation
You are now ready to install your motherboard.
How to install our products right… the first time
The first thing you should do is reading 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, MiTAC 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.

2.4 Installing the Processor and Heat sink
The S8812 supported AMD® processors are listed in section 1.2 Hardware
Specifications on page 4. Check our website at http://www.tyan.com
for latest
processor support.
NOTE: MiTAC is not liable for damage as a result of operating an
unsupported configuration.
Processor Installation (G34 1944-pin Socket for AMD CPU)
Follow the steps below to install the processors and heat sinks.
Please note that the illustrations are based on a G34 1944-pin Socket which may
be look exactly like the motherboard you purchased. Therefore, the illustrations
should be held for your reference only.
1. Locate the CPU socket.
2. Pull the CPU lever slightly away from the socket and then push it to a fully
open position.
http://www.tyan.com
22
3. Lift the socket cover to a fully open position.
4. Take off the CPU protection cap.
5. Place the CPU in the CPU socket.
http://www.tyan.com
23
6. Close the socket cover and press the CPU socket lever down to lock the CPU
in place.
7. Repeat the same procedures to install the other CPUs.
Heat sink Installation
After installing the processor, you should proceed to install the heat sink. The CPU
heat sink will ensure that the processor do not overheat and continue to operate at
maximum performance for as long as you own them. The overheated processor is
dangerous to the motherboard.
For the safest method of installation and information on choosing the appropriate
heat sink, using heat sinks validated by AMD
http://www.amd.com
®
. Please refer to the AMD® website:
The following diagram illustrates how to install heat sink onto the CPU of S8812.
8. Place the heat sink on top of the CPU and secure it to the motherboard with 2
screws.
9. Connect the heat sink Fan cable to the CPU0 FAN connector J55.
10. Repeat the same procedures to install the other heat sinks (CPU1 Fan: J9,
CPU2 Fan: J10, CPU3 Fan: J14).
http://www.tyan.com
24
2.5 Thermal Interface Material
There are two types of
thermal interface materials
designed for use with the
processors.
The most common material
comes as a small pad
attached to the heat sink at
the time of purchase. There
should be a protective cover
over the material. Take care
not to touch this material.
Simply remove the protective
cover and place the heat
sink on the processor.
The second type of interface
material is usually packaged
separately. It is commonly
referred to as ‘thermal
compound’. Simply apply a
thin layer on to the CPU lid
(applying too much will
actually reduce the cooling).
NOTE: Always check with the manufacturer of the heat sink & processor to
ensure that the thermal interface material is compatible with the processor
and meets the manufacturer’s warranty requirements.
http://www.tyan.com
25
2.6 Tips on Installing Motherboard in Chassis
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 are
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.
http://www.tyan.com
26
Some chassis include plastic studs instead of metal. Although the plastic studs are
usable, MiTAC 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.
http://www.tyan.com
27
2.7 Installing the Memory
Before installing memory, ensure that the memory you have is compatible with the
motherboard and processor. Check the TYAN Web site at http://www.tyan.com
details of the type of memory recommended for your motherboard.
The following diagram shows common types of DDR3 memory modules.

Supports up to 256GB total of U/RDDR3 and LV RDDR3 at 800,1066 or
1333MHz speeds
All installed memory will automatically be detected and no jumpers or settings
need changing
All memory must be of the same type and density
