(Note 1) Due to Windows 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is
installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than 4 GB.
(Note 2) To reach DDR3 1866 MHz or above, you must install two memory modules and install them in the
DDR3_3 and DDR3_4 memory sockets.
(Note 3) For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install
it in the PCIEX16 slot. The PCIEX8 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16 slot. When PCIEX8 is
populated with a PCI Express graphics card, the PCIEX16 slot will operate at up to x8 mode.
(Note 4) Whether the CPU/system fan speed control function is supported will depend on the CPU/system
cooler you install.
(Note 5) Available functions in EasyTune may differ by motherboard model.
