Before installing the Processor
This mainboard does not automatically determine the front side bus (FSB)
frequency for the processor. You may need to change the setting by making
changes to jumper (JP4) on the mainboard, or changing the settings in the
system Setup Utility. We strongly recommend that you do not overclock proc-
essors or other components to run faster than their rated speed.
Warning: Overclocking components can adversely affect the reliability of
the system and introduce errors into your system. Overclocking can per-
manently damage the mainboard by generating excess heat in
components that are run beyond the rated limits.
This mainboard has a Socket 462 processor socket. When choosing a proc-
essor, consider the performance requirements of the system. Performance is
based on the processor design, the clock speed and system bus frequency of
the processor, and the quantity of internal cache memory and external cache
memory.
